The Driver's Ed Instructor really irritated me. He evidently doesn't appreciate homeschoolers. The first day we met, he asked #1 if he liked homeschooling. "Some parts of it are ok."
"You're learning twice as much as those kids in that school," replied the instructor. "That's what he doesn't like about it," I said. "He has to work harder." "Well don't worry about socialization," he went on. "You'll learn more in college than you would ever learn about in high school. You'll get socialized just fine then."
"We weren't worried at all about socialization," I responded. "He is in 4H, Geography club, History club, Smiles and Frowns, Student Government, and more." Later when we were trying to figure out times for us to get together for the driving he found out how social my son is. It took quite a while to find an empty evening for him. Even then we had to cancel other events to make room for it.
Here he is learning about hard and soft water in Environmental Science. Poor little homeschool boy closed up in a tower by himself just hoping to learn a little something. Phooey!
