Homeschooling My Daughter

Tuesday, February 14th, 2006

Being useful brings me joy. I feel good when I’m contributing to the world in some way. In my case, I’m homeschooling my daughter. Not only am I teaching her, I’m also learning as well. I don’t remember some things that I had learned in school. It’s been a long time since I was even in college. Now, I’m relearning while teaching my daughter.

My daughter doesn’t have to be exposed to a bunch of bullies who main purpose at school is to torment other children. She will have more time to concentrate on learning and she will have more confidence because she won’t be around others who enjoy making fun of people.

She enjoys it, too. I’ve never seen her so excited to learn. It’s sad that she has to hear guff from others. Her step-grandmother asks her when she’s going to get her school pictures taken. I guess she’s never heard of getting pictures taken at a studio before. ~rolls eyes~ The complete ignorance of people sometimes just baffles my mind.
