I can relate to this. I changed schools because of a move at the start of the sixth grade. It was a horrible experience. I dreaded going back there all summer.

I can relate to this. I changed schools because of a move at the start of the sixth grade. It was a horrible experience. I dreaded going back there all summer. My brother and I saw a program on home schooling on TV, and I saw my path out. We begged our parents to home school us. That worked out really well for us in the end. We got a top level education and we learned to be unafraid to learn on our own, whatever we needed. Neither of us finished college, but we’re both reasonably successful today, having found our own path in the world. My brother is a self published science fiction author with over one million books sold. I’m a software engineer and wannabe entrepreneur. We’re both self taught in our professions. School really sucks. I will try my hypothetical future kids on home schooling first to see how they take to it.
