Things Bitter Homeschoolers Would Like To Say

Posted in Homeschooling

These are the things a lot of homeschooling parents would like to tell non-homeschoolers if social conventions and basic human kindness went out the window. Here's #13  (my favorite):

13. Stop assuming that because the word "home" is right there in "homeschool," we never leave the house. We're the ones who go to the amusement parks, museums, and zoos in the middle of the week and in the off-season and laugh at you because you have to go on weekends and holidays when it's crowded and icky.
The rest are pretty good, mostly because they hit close to the mark. Don't say I didn't warn you.

I have always loved these! Someone did a video on You Tube with these. I posted it on my site at http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/coffeewithmrsdani/650395/

You are so right. The reason they are so funny is because they are so true. I have been tempted to type these out and carry them around with me to hand out to people.
