[RyanTheRhino]

The necessity to fit into them is what i protest to. After all, aren't the majority non-gay, self-absorbed, judgemental, etc? Thereby making gays, unselfish, non-judgemental people non-conformist and/or abberant?

institutions are inherently conservative, true. even progressive ones, to some extent. i believe your observation falls in the sociology 101 arena.

My kids are home schooled and will beat any public or private school kid at any test.

lol "my kids are the best because..." blah blah blah. you think your kids are smart. thats what your telling me. awsome.

lol "my kids are the best because..." blah blah blah. you think your kids are smart. thats what your telling me. awsome.

Imo, most home-schooled children are more well-prepared to face the real world than most publicly indoctrinated children.

 

[NoDrama]

being aware of social standards and fitting into them is conformity.

i don't like wearing suits either besides to a wedding. imagine my dilemma last year when i got an interview to work at a plant nursery and they blanked me on what attire i should show up in. i mean, who shows up for an interview at a working in the dirt place in a suit? i decided on the suit without jacket or tie and sleeves partially rolled up. i got the job.

so you got the job and had to wear a suit without jacket and tie to work every day? Or are you trying to tell us that the Nursery only hired you because of your conservative attire? Or are you trying to tell us that you got hired and just happened to be dressed well? Do you think you would have gotten the job if you had showed up in Jeans and a T-Shit?

I ask these questions because your evidence, while anecdotal, seems to imply that home schooled children are social outcasts and have no culture and cannot exist in society. You are wrong about that, and I doubt there is a "Social awkwardness" scale or chart that officially recognizes home-schooled children as being social outcasts. Guess what? There are no studies that show any statistically significant behavior attributed to home schooling. The home schooled kids I knew were actually more socially experienced than their peers because instead of spending 90% of their day with their own age group, they tend to engage all groups and actually are more mature than other children the same age. Which is probably why you feel they are socially awkward because they do not share your penchant for fart jokes and dirty Johnny tales.

well imo, thats not true.

Do you base your opinion on any real evidence?

Here ya go malignant, it is pretty unfair that you ignore him yet still direct comments toward him.

That depends on the dedication of the parents who are teaching their children. I'm seen some pretty damned ignorant home schooled individuals during my tenure here on mother Earth.

 

[malignant]

no not at all, considering the irritation that causes to me and countless other people, ive rarely had people on the internet piss me off bad enough to want to cause them great bodily harm, so the fact he isnt a mod and can be ignored is like getting an early birthday. i really hate, hate, hate the guy, so no its not in the slightest bit unfair.

if the kids are socialized regularly, most home schooled kids are socially impaired after years of isolation.

Yeah that's unfair. You are pretty immature if you resort to tactics like that just because you can't hold your own in a debate.

 

[malignant]

i dont want to debate with anyone, nor do i want some asshole picking apart anything i post that he may or may not feel opposed to. if someone ruins every thread they post on and actually contributes nothing useful why should i have to read it? no tactics, no agenda, just simply celebrating the freedom of enjoyment again. seeing that dudes posts triggered rage for me and made posting in certain ares, a miserable experience for me. were talking about a guy who goes out of his way to irritate others, how is that acceptable and my enjoyment isnt? i think if you go out of your way to be an asshole you have no right to sympathy or courtesy. i know for a fact i am not alone in the way i feel about the guy and im not the only one with him on the ignore list.

Then you should not direct comments toward him.

 

[malignant]

i more than likely wont, and if you hadnt felt the need to give your two cents worth he wouldn't have gotten any more mention than the initial post. sorry if me hating your friend causes you troubles. that isnt my problem.
