[quote=@RawrgnatheBloodfridge] By mine, and most of my friend's standards, you would be considered the luckiest kid on the block. Though, we always envisioned home school as being, "watch cartoons while you're doing homework." The only, and to be honest, only drawback of homeschooling is that if you don't like your family, you're essentially stuck with them 24/7. You also have less opportunity to make friends, but you can still make friends. [/quote] We actually watch cartoons as homework sometimes. xD Actually, we like our family more than non-homeschoolers, since get to know each other more. Our mom usually always has wacky stories to tell and such. Our dad is always annoying and popping toes. But we know we get more chances than most people, so we use that to our advantage as much as we can. And yes, we do have less opportunity to make friends, but then again we wouldn't want to make friends with all the conservatives that live around us. Plus, an observation I've made recently, is we end up paying more attention to people. When we walk into a store, we remember that one cashier after a single meeting before. Or that one guy that flew into the airport, but hasn't returned since that first day. Since we don't interact with a lot of people, each time we do it's very special, and feels more important to us. To you guys, you probably walk past the same people every day and don't even know their names. xD. Except for that one you always talk to, because they always say their name every time you talk to them. Oh, and I'm on the top 100 list. I'm actually all 100 of those kids. I'm also the nerd group. The DnD group. The football group. The teachers. The principal. So... yeah. Things are different. Glad to hear your school actually likes us though, ;). Around where we live, people are like "You idiots. Now your kids will never get the smarts!". :(
