I was only homeschooled thru 3rd grade and never really fit in at school. I am now so grateful for this.

Homeschooled our son the first 2 years. Wish we would have done it a lot longer. Then I took him out about 30 days a year - until 9th grade (friends, sports, girls). We went everywhere. To our pizzerias, to real estate deals, just driving around, goofing off on our property.

You never get those years back. He built a great foundation to work from. Got into USC (which I would never let happen again - but that’s a different discussion) so I guess we did ok…

If anyone out there is on the fence - know this - you can do no worse than the government school. It remains one of the best decisions we ever made in our lives.

What’s insane is handing children over to teachers for state-sponsored brainwashing and irreversible damage to their personal development during the important formative years of childhood. I wasn’t homeschooled but my wife was, and it’s wild to see the uphill battle it is for me to reprogram my brain from all those years in the school system. We are homeschooling our future children mo doubt.
