  • The Case for Homeschooling: Reason #7585

    This story caught my attention. Over at a message board that I frequent, people are understandably upset. Meanwhile, although I too was angry, I wasn’t shocked. I even wrote a “teachers can snap” post. Firstly, quite frankly, because…They can. Secondly, because I’m aware of just how cruel some teachers can be. When I was younger…

  • Heeeeere Trekkie, Trekkie….
