Homeschool is so creepy and weird.
Because you only hear about shitty experiences.
Dang I guess my parents were creepy and weird for not wanting me to go to a school that would probably do a worse job teaching me full of teachers and kids who would judge me for not conforming to their religion ๐
School is secular my friend. Your parents (usually) aren't if they are homeschooling. Nobody cares about your religion, this is a perfect example of the bs that homeschool kids are fed. The world isn't out to get you.
My family is all atheists, and people in Utah and the south are pretty likely to care about that. They certainly did when I was growing up, and it's still not uncommon for people to make fun of atheists or think less of them. My parents homeschooled me partly to avoid religion indoctrination, not every part of the world thinks there shouldn't be bibles (or books of Mormon) in classrooms
Why? Do you think they don't get out?
That's part of it, another problem is that everyone is wrong sometimes, and there's no one there to correct your parents. It also makes it really easy for parents to brainwash their kids.
