  1. I own a pair of these drivers that I run with actives in a two way setup. They are super clean/clear sounding and if given the opportunity will absolutely blow your head off without notable distortion. Diaphrams can be sourced from Orange County Speaker as well as other places. These can be awesome drivers.

  2. You can't realistically lump ALL home school parents into the drug user camp.

    I don't think anybody has done that. There are some excellent homeschooling parents. My point was simply there are some bad ones.

    It cuts both ways, and as you say, there are good and bad teaches and good and bad parents.

    Yes, thats exactly the point I was making.

    The public school system is BROKEN and it is not the state's responsibility to teach.

    Oh yes it is. That's why your paying taxes for it, remember? The parents better be helping too IMHO, but the state has accepted that responsibility and is charging you money for it.

    Just don't label the majority of homeschool families as broken and drug users/abusers.

    Oh quite the contrary. I believe most homeschooling parents do a great job. As previously quoted by you however, some do not.

    If only all parents cared as much about their kids education as we seem to. Really it probably boils down to that IMHO. I'm involved with my kids education. We work on it everyday. We read almost every night. I think all parents should make it a priority regardless of your childs educational path.

  3. I don't think they are..... I know it. If your hooked on illegal drugs or a child abuser what would you do? Send your child to school everyday for inspection/questions or keep them at home under your controlling watchful eye? These are FACTS, not opinions. As I stated, there are problems associated with every educational path you can take. Do some volunteer work with the Dept. of Human Resources in your area. I think you will have an eye opening experience. I'm sorry, but homeschooling is not always a good thing. Glad it worked out for you, but there are those that use it for evil.

  4. Lets see if I can clear some of the points.

    People hooked on Crystal Meth choose to homeschool. Its that simple. Why, you might ask. Because homeschoolers are not as accountable.

    Party free thing is from personal experience! You can't recognise how that might happen? Wake up.

    State testing and requirements? Usually a low standard across the board. Honestly, we are striving for much more here in our small public school. Each teacher brings special talents to the classroom. Thats just not the case with Mom or Dad.

    For reference a family member works with abused kids, DHR, the Sheriff's Dept, and the County Prosecutors Office.

  5. Yes, public school can have its problems, but home schooling has its own set of worrys and they are many.

    First and foremost its the #1 crutch for crystal meth addiction. Want to sit around the house and do meth all day every day with 3 young kids at home? Just let your school system know your home schooling. Now that's a prison!!!

    What about negotiating and teamwork skills acquired at school. There is also the home schooler off to college syndrome. Woo who, its major party time!

    I remember high school being some of the best times of my like so I would argue that home schoolers are certainly missing out on those.

    Also, whatever glitches the homeschool teacher has, the children can have those same deficiencies. One real evident problem is with the mispronunciation of words. At public or private school the student has many different teachers throughout the years and no one person repeating bad habits.
