Any other homeschoolers?

Why do parents choose to homeschool their children? Is it to shelter them from the horrors of the outside world? I wouldn’t trade my high school expierience for anything. Up to this point in my life, this experience is unmatched by any other and I cannot see ANY way that anything remotely similar to a high school expierience can be found if you are homeschooled.

10,000 fans coming out to regional semifinal for basketball. Representing the school in the Model General Assembly. taking part in NHS and field trips and homecoming and prom and football games and state cross country championships and all district honors and county science fair. It just doesn’t seem that taking dual courses at community college and taking part in AAU basketball can resemble the friendships and memories that I have and will always cherish. But maybe I’m wrong.

Also, how does a diploma work for homeschoolers? Do they get a GED or something?

I also participated in the civil Air Patrol. I only started my junior year of high school just to learn the drill and stuff but have become somewhat inactive after basketball season started (late practices) But for the 14 months I was heavily into that, I noticed that ALOT of homeschooled kids do that. Some of them are REALLY hardcore. I will never fully understand the whole “homeschooling” thing. I don’t care if I never got into any service academy, I wouldn’t trade my high school years for ANYTHING.
