1. I did reply to him ...

stating that I was a homeschooler myself.

2. hey you!

YEah, I saw that.

Funny - he didn't respond to any of the posts.

Also "funny" - ever notice how most (not all, THANKS DINGER!) teachers all have stories about how the hs'ers they "got back" were all slow or backward or behind? Did they ever stop to think that most of the successful hs'ers DON"T GO BACK!?!?

The complete ARROGANCE of some of them just really galls me sometimes. Like they - and only they - are "capable" of being a "good teacher". It really isn't rocket science. Unless, it's a course in rocket science. lol...

3. I agree with you completely.

And, believe me, Hubby, a chemical and materials engineer, would be able to teach rocket science a whole lot better than most.;)

Anyway ... take care!
