Why homeschool?

Just a few random thoughts on homeschooling. After several years of trying it, I now think it's not such a great idea unless you're a total homebody and have children who also are homebodies. I'm also jaded now by the number of homeschooling moms I've met who are not working hard at educating, but at "protecting." You know the sort. Every other day is Pajama Day or Back to Nature Day (read: Let's spend the day finding frogs in the grass). That's not a better education. It does nothing to help the movement or convince the world that Christian parents want BETTER for their kids. It just makes us look lazy. Spare me the test-score argument about homeschooled kids. I've also found many of them to have an attitude that they're on par with adults, socially. Many of them interrupt adults constantly, while their beaming homeschooling moms remain clueless that the little darlings are reflecting badly on them. It is just rude. More later.
