A look at her ACT score will prove to every single person that she has had a well-rounded education at home. Meet her in person and you would never know she was supposed to be unsocialized :-)Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14954106861415671578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6970915.post-425001227323019482010-03-02T12:43:55.423-05:002010-03-02T12:43:55.423-05:00This was my mother's (ps teacher)argument agai...This was my mother's (ps teacher)argument against us homeschooling. She saw several children come into the school from homeschooling who hadn't been exposed to any history or didn't know how to read.
