Welcome back to the real world!
The real world is different because there's too many cherry picking, death cultist trolls with no ability to assess risk or comprehend that insignificant numbers aren't relevant; casting doubt on what we're all in this together really means.

If you're able, please get vaccinated. For the exact same reason you don't send your kid to school with a peanut butter sandwich. bongsmilie

I've always pitied home-schooled kids, because they miss out on so much stuff that is a big part of their development in a society. It's one thing to study something, but along with that is a lot of social learning, and other team-building exercises. Plus they miss out on a lot of the fun of being a teenager.

I suspect that they will have problems blending in with our society. Can anyone say anxiety medication?

I recently bought tickets to the Hella Mega concert, with Fall Out Boy, Weezer, and Green Day at Petco Park.

The process required signing a contract saying that attendees will have to be vaccinated, and there will be no restrictions on them while at the show. If someone attending is not vaccinated, they must have a negative covid test in the 2 days before the show, and while there they will be required to wear a mask at all times.

I believe that some in this thread have predicted this will happen. :lol:

Naw, it's all about making sure that there is enough group activities scheduled. I get what you're saying, but you misunderstand what homeschooling is all about. Most home schooled kids get plenty of socialization, but they don't get the indoctrination that goes along with public school. My 13-year old makes friends in new circles very easily. Theater camp is this week, and she's made new friends already. They are working on a script together, and doing the exact same team building exercises you seem to think that they are missing out on. Other group classes and activities such as dance, cyber-camps, sports, martial arts, music ensembles, etc are all a part of my kids' homeschooling path. No one is anxious. They focus on their passions, because they are allowed to.

i use mine in the store, doctor office and elevator.
We are still required to wear a mask in any indoor public place. But sadly there are still some assholes as you can see by the link (I would have said stupid but it’s a university FFS). A lot of kids that go there are spoiled rich kids and it’s nice to see some action taken as they were a HUGE driver of higher numbers in our area in the early spring.

“Most”? Do you not realize that the one big priority is to get kids back into the schools due to the damage caused by the lack of socializing with their peers. It’s nice that your kids are able to participate but “most” cannot due to family circumstances. I was going to post some links but I’ll leave that to you. It seems like most everything you say, you know nothing about this either. So I’ll leave it to you to school yourself on what the “professionals” are saying. Again I’m glad your kids are doing well, “most” are not.

Peej was homeschooled too. It’s why he has a hard time making friends.

What makes you think they don't have life skills? They know more about cyber-security and computer programming than you do. You have no idea what you're talking about. Keep driving your Uber for dollars. I'm sorry that it somehow upsets you that my kids can also play piano better than you can.

Venus and Serena Williams were home schooled. Do you think they suck at life?

I prefer the american spelling of theater myself, and frankly daddy isn't rich. Daddy sacrifices for his children, and when daddy's girl says "I'm interested in theater camp", Daddy says "It's expensive, but I'll figure out a way to make it work." Daddy is working overtime this month, running several musical theater shows a week in a new outdoor venue, so that baby girl can enjoy being a kid and have fun at camp with friends. Daddy knows that public school teachers are pedos and assholes mixed in with a few good ones, and daddy isn't too keen on leaving his babies to the wolves 30-hours a week, just so that he can get free childcare and lackluster education for his kids. Daddy is more interested in enrolling his kids in the local community college at 14, so that they can have all their general ed, plus an AS in music tech by the time they are 18, so they will be more than prepared to go to any 4-year college they want, with half the credits for a bachelors degree already done for cheap at the community college level.
