Quote From: x0kimmon0xHow can you start your own business if you can't do basic math skills to figure out your revenue, or you can't speak proper English to write a proposal? Being a "paid slave" is the way most people end up successful. It's called working hard to get what you want out of life, not settling for the bare minimum. I have worked with people who have actually gone to school, or were homeschooled, but didn't try to get anything out of it and they have such poor skills in general. It's very frustrating when you work in retail and a co-worker says something like "what's half off of $75?" and they have to search around for a calculator while the customer stands there waiting to see what their overall total is. Imagine something like that with the added "well I never had to learn that because my mom said that I shouldn't conform to society's torture of actually knowing what the hell I'm doing."

And likely that coworker that is driving you nuts was a product of the public school system. And maybe it's not the school's fault. Maybe your coworker is has the IQ of a pea.

Damn, you're on to me. I knew I shouldn't have let those kids out of the closet...
Be real. Again we go round and round with the argument that if you don't go to school you can't do basic math or speak proper English. Hellllooooooo!!!!! Most of the people on the street that can't do these things DID graduate from an accredited high school.
Which leads us back to why parents are choosing to home school. I'd better take my Dramamine before I get dizzy.
