Here's a great example of a homeschooled kid........you get a spelling bee champion with no social skills whatsoever. I dont know about you guys but I dont want my kids to turn out like this one............

Actually.... My wife home schools our kids and they are not at all like goober boy in that video. If that kid went to public school, he'd be just the same except he'd be getting beat up on a regular basis. The vast majority of public schools suck. Private schools have their own problems. The kids I know who are home schooled are a lot like kids 30-40 years ago. They're polite, intelligent and are respectful of adults. All that said, it's completely insulting that the company and the MEC even suggest home school as an acceptable alternative to them doing right by us in this LOA.
Let them eat SIBA....
