lisamoeOne thing that really irritates me about homeschooling in this part of the country is that a) there seem to be a lot of people doing it for cultish religious reasons who have no fucking idea what they're doing academically and b)that everyone assumes that if you're homeschooling you're one of these people.
One of the local hs groups has advertised that they're having a field trip to the Noble Natural History Museum accompanied by a "creation scientist" whatthefuckever that is, at $25 per family, to explain what's wrong with all the exhibits. Why are they bothering? Couldn't they just stay home and not clog up the museums if they're going specifically to keep from learning things? They could stay home and not learn for free plus not be out in the community giving other homeschoolers a bad name.

There are a few HSs at All Souls that do it for non religious reasons.
