I've come to the conclusion that there are many ups and downs to being a homeschooler. So today I'm going to do something fun and post all the pros and cons of Homeschooling from my experience. *rubs hands* If any Non-Homeschoolers are reading this, just bear with me, Okay?

PRO: You get to do school at home.
CON:
You
get pretty tired of your dining room table pretty fast.
PRO:
You
are never in school for more than a few hours because you never have
breaks
CON:
You think being in school until 2:00 completely takes away your day.
PRO:
You're out of school before any one else in the neighborhood because
you don't have random snow days or holidays. Ever.
CON:
You never have snow days or Holidays.
PRO:
All of your classmates, teachers and principles are family.
CON:
All
of your classmates teachers and principles are family.
PRO:
You
can do school whenever you want. You could start at 6:00 AM and no
one would mind! (though who does that? Honestly.)
CON:
Sometimes this means working on weekends..... yeah.
PRO:
You can double up so your family can take a day off for field trips
or shopping or picnicking.
CON:
You can never call in sick for school. Ever. Unless you have, like,
the flu. Then please, do math in bed.
PRO:
You get to tell people you're homeschooled and watch their faces.
CON:
You have to answer publicschoolers questions. (Are you allowed to
listen to music??)
PRO:
You can use cassette players and listen to the old radio shows and no
one will judge.
CON:
Actually, yeah, there's the judge-y but you can just toss your head
and say, “Hey, I'm homeschooled.” and they'll leave you alone.
But they might laugh.
PRO:
You can read more books in a week than most publicschoolers do in a
month, or even a year
CON:
NERD!
PRO:
NERD!
PRO: We tend to be geeks
CON: Not everyone likes Geeks. but oh well, sucks for them.
CON:
Publicschoolers
can be super rude.
PRO:
But it's all cool, I'm pretty sure they're just jealous.
CON:
Jealous people love to hate.
PRO:
You don't have to leave the comfort of your bedroom (or your pajamas)
to do school
CON:
Well I
have to change my pajamas but I can stay in my room.
PRO:
On the last day of 12th
grade I'm doing school in my PJ's. Because why
has everyone done that but me??
CON:
Doing school while the kids
outside get to sled. What is with that?
PRO:
You have some of the greatest friends ever, and they're all
homeschooled too.
CON:
You have no idea how regular schools works.
PRO:
That last CON is more like a
PRO but I'm running out of CON's.
PRO:
MOVIE. NIGHTS.
CONS:
“What's an Iphone?”
PRO:
A childhood without technology. Seriously. I can't thank my parents
enough for giving me that. (Does that make the other CON a PRO too?)
PRO:
Game nights.
CON:
Candy Land. (I'm getting
desperate with Cons here.)
PRO:
Family outings.
CON:
….. Diagramming.
PRO:
Seriously some of the greatest field trips ever.
CON:
never eating out.
PRO:
You get all home cooked meals and they're the best anyway.
CON:
You don't get to have Soda.
PRO:
But who likes Soda all that much anyway? Okay, cancel that last CON.
Soda is only good on occasion.
CON:
Okay. I've got nothing.
PRO:
The PRO's far out way the CON's.

TADA!!!! I hope you all enjoyed that!! Oh and I've decided to save my Tolkien post until November because my family is going to do an LOTR Marathon and I want to save it for that weekend.... maybe even do a blog part! (haha!) So.... yeah. Sorry. It's been mad here. I hate being the oldest at home. It really sucks. On the upside I am LOVING my research paper!!
