i think even tho the state gets payed and ourselves get paid i still think if some kids get home schooled there would be less fights. do u think that could work?

No doubt that more parental involvement would prevent this kinda stuff, it is obvious to me that if the parents have properly raised their kids, particularly when it comes to resisting peer pressure, they won't need to be closely watched in school and won't cause these kind of problems.

If staff at a school doesn't stop a fight that they become aware of, liability issues can arise. We have had several cases of that in my area in the last few years.

I was a weird kid myself-a loner interested in firearms, of which there were always one or two in our home. However, my parents were "the real deal" and they made sure I knew how to behave in school and what would happen to me if I didn't. I never got into trouble in school.

At the age of 18 I was a military police officer in the Air Force.

it seems to be a very fluctuating circumstance. in one hand, homeschooling done right can be beneficial, however not always, and definately not when done wrong.


public school can be benificial, but not always, and it makes a huge diffrence if you get a good school and teachers, or a bad one.

For sure, Jennie, seems like alot of things in life work that way.

Staying at home to reduce fights is rather counter productive since then they would not know how to socialize.
I agree it would be great if more parents homeschooled but people need people as well.
