I am currently a homeschooled high schooler. I
think that homeschooling is better then actual highschool only
beacuse you dont have to deal with the drama and your not rushed on
how fast to get the work done!! You can go at your own past. But
the hard thing is. Your not active like you are in school....your
not walking from class to class and your not having P.E. But i do
work out so its not like its a problem to me. Then another big deal
is being socialble. When you go to school your around a bunch of
kids. But when your homeschooled your not. My mom put together this
homeschooling group for teenagers ages from 13-17. (guys and girls)
We meet every Thursday and we do something. Like the past cupple of
weeks we went bowling, art projects, planting, haning out. Then
today we went to a Park and just hung out there. Even as
teenagers we still like that park! You woouldnt believe how many
teenagers were at the park after (public) school! haha i guess
everyone still has the kid in them..Most people think that
homeschooled kids just sit at home and do nuthing but watch TV or
just go on the computer and Myspace or Facebook. But thats not
true. Us homeschoolers work just as hard as public schoolers. While
we finish one lesson. That lesson would take public schoolers a
week to do. Becasue they break it down in sections. To me we
actually work harder. Yea we get to sleep in and start work. But
now a days when you look at it. Teens who go to public school are
going to bed 11 and 12 at night. And then they have to wake up at 6
A.M or earlier. And expeshally the kids that are is sports. They
dont go to bed till late. And then they wake up early. And after
school they got sport practice. And when they get home its already
6 or 7 pm. They gotta eat dinner and do there
homework...Causing them to be up later....So for those of you who
think homeschooling kids just sit and do nothing all day. You
shouldnt judge before you say anything...Because most people who
say things like "All you do is sit around and watch TV!"
or "You dont actually do school work!" Thats not true,
Some of us work harder then public schoolers. The reason- Becasue
we dont have teachers to help us or explaine things to us. We got
books, or online pages. And some parents dont know algebra. So how
do we figure it out?!?! Some people get tutors. But what about the
people who dont have the money for turtors..Id like to know your
opinion on what you think about homeschooling!!!

Report AbuseIn my personal opinion I think that homeschooling is kind of boring. But for me that is understandable because I guess you can say I am considered a social butterfly. I couldn't stand to be cofined to my house cut off from the rest of the world all day.Well that is my opinion.
Lots of Love
