    I pulled my kid, primarily because the local school district is awful, and because they harass kids (and their parents) into coming to school sick, leading to constant outbreaks of illness, especially since COVID. As an unexpected bonus, it was refreshing to see my kid actually enjoy learning for once.

      How do you socialize your kid with people their age

        Online. Like every other kid.

            Why would you think that? Do you still play by playground rules?

          So no school socialisation, and then leaving the kid with the net sociopaths.

          That’s a prime reason to make home schooling finally illegal.

            There are absolutely no sociopaths in schools. I should know because I didn’t get a track scholarship from running away from bullies. I also didn’t learn where to buy alcohol while underage or how to buy pot. Hooray for school socialization!

              The most dangerous sociopaths in education are homeschooling parents.

      I don’t know about everywhere, but where I’m at state funding for schools is based on the lowest recorded attendance, so it encouraged schools to tell kids to come in sick.

      It’s also why they started scheduling exit exams and shit on senior skip days.
