No one that's going to the additional effort of finding and participating in this type of school is going to let their kid be a legitimate bully. That level of parental involvement is what's lacking from a bully's life.
- masklinn 3y agoThat is laughably naïve. Plenty of parents think their little angel can do no wrong and will at best ignore evidence to the contrary.
- sibeliuss 3y agoWhile I do agree with you here, I do think the OP has a point. Homeschool parents are _involved_. Its a small, close community. Word gets around.
- masklinn 3y ago> Its a small, close community. Word gets around. That describes lots of communities where abuse is epidemic.
- mftrhu 3y agoSmall, close communities are communities where the bonds between each participant is much stronger, making it costlier - both in terms of immediately broken relationships, and of backlash from the rest of the group - for people to sever it. Word gets around, but not necessarily from the right people, and - if bad outcomes are not guaranteed - there is nevertheless a strong incentive for it to fall on deaf ears, stronger than it would be in a less tight-knit community.
