A Method of torture or at least that’s how it’s many victims plea
It’s highest usage case (pre covid) was for parents (usually Christian conservative although types may vary) to control their children and what they see and how they act
There are varying tiers of homeschooling
with the worst usually being the most common unfortunately
Tier 1: Actually good, with education and socialization being well rounded with things that aren’t just some dumb church group IE Sports, Park meetups, Clubs, Partial public school etc, however it is important to note that even this tier while not being the worst is still probably not the greatest either because it’s very difficult to socialize as a kid outside of school seeing as how most kids are in school when your out
Tier 2: If you’ve fallen into this tier then congratulations because you got horrible RNG on birth and are probably super depressed right now, in this tier the parents aren’t teaching the children at all and they’re home all day with no friends and nothing to do but TV and video games (depending on circumstance you might not even have that!) the types of parents who homeschool their children this way are usually Christian conservatives who wanted to keep their child away from different views and opinions while at the same time being absolutely lazy
in this tier it’s the fuckin bible or nothing baby! And if you dare criticize these parents they’ll gaslight and mentally abuse you to no end

Get the Homeschoolmug. Literally hell. You lose all social life, have no friends, and eventually slip into crippling loneliness and depression.

Get the Homeschoolmug. A NORMAL person. Listen, I'm tired of the stereotypes. We are not all Mormons, Many of us have amazing fashion sense, and homeschoolers that fit the stereotype are a minority.
I KNOW who Lady Gaga is,I don't have to ask to use Google, I have a YouTube channel, and I'm homeschooled.
Plus, homeschoolers have time to do awesome extracurricular activities and socialize, while other kids sit in a classroom all day and get in trouble for socializing.
Oh yeah, and my chores don't involve milking the cow.

Person: What school do you go to?
Homeschooler: I'm homeschooled.
Person: Oh. what do you do all day?
Homeschooler: Lots of things.
Person: Like Latin and stuff, cause I like to go on the Internet. You know about the Internet right?
Homeschooler: Here's my email. Let me know if you want help setting up a blog or a Facebook page. You can friend me on Facebook too. I have lots of friends!
Person: Really? Wow...
Homeschooler: I'm homeschooled.

Get the Homeschoolermug. A kid who is merely "homeschooled" is not a "homeschooler". This means that though they do their work at home, they actually have friends, they actually go to the movies, their best friends are not their parents, and they don't wear ugly high waisted mom jeans that make them look like they have no butt. They are the kids who would be the cool kids if they went to school, but they're just lucky enough that they get to stay home and do their school whenever they feel like it. They also know how to flirt and how to kiss. They have a bunch of friends. Many of these friends go to school. Homeschooled kids also know how to dress fashionably. They wear low ride skinny jeans and shirts that hang off their shoulder. They wear high heels and are allowed to wear strapless dresses. They go to homeschool homecoming which is a dance where many people dance all in one big clump while some grind in the middle of the clump away from the eyes of supervisors. There is so much more to say, but basically homeschooled kids are like other kids. Normal. We have raging hormones, we dress like human beings instead of old decrepit moms from the 90's. We have normal friends and *shocking!!* we know how babies are made! The coolest homeschooled kids in the world live in South Florida. End of story ;)
Note: Homeschooled kids tend to be just as smart as homeschoolers but do not show it because that would make them seem lame.

John: Wow... look at the homeschooler trying to talk to that girl. Homeschoolers are pathetic.
Jen: You are a homeschooler.
John: How dare you insult me! I'm homeschooled but I'm not a homeschooler.
Jen: What's the difference?
John: Homeschoolers are pathetic losers and homeschooled kids are normal people who just so happen to be freaking lucky enough to do their school at home!
Jen: Oh... I get it!
Jen: You are a homeschooler.

Get the Homeschooledmug. A group of super-agents whose goal and objective in life is to keep America safe from Communists, Dictators, and general bad stuff. They have extensive operational history, the first known case was when John Wilkes Booth was taken out by a homeschooled assassin. The most recent known case was a joint op with the Navy SEALS on the Osama Bin Laden raid. Most homeschoolers don't talk about their operations, and stay secretive and shy so their mission won't be in danger of being compromised.
Today, homeschoolers participate in extensive missions across the world, mainly in North Korea and Iran. The details of the missions are, of course, highly classified. All homeschoolers have been trained in martial arts and small group tactics, and 99% of them have qualified as "expert" according to Secret Service shooting standards. A select few have been trained in counterintelligence operations, and serve as double agents in the normal school systems. Most of the time, they're disguised as wimpy geeks and nerds.
In many areas, there is a homeschool "base" consisting of fortified buildings, along with an armory. The locations of the bases are still unknown, but rumor has it most of them tend to be in secluded locations, such as Alaska, out West, and parts of upper Michigan. All homeschoolers are expected to be in a state of readiness and be able to report to their base of operations in no longer than 30 minutes to respond to any contingency operation by an enemy of the United States.

Although the State Police recieved credit for the saving of the President's life, rumor has it that a highly trained group of homeschoolers were the actual ones responsible for the saving of his life.
The outnumbered group of homeschoolers managed to fight off the superior numbers of Communist minions using Uzis, Desert Eagles, and Sawed-off Shotguns.
"It's Ok. I'm homeschooled."
"Have you seen Captain America in action? He has to be homeschooled!"

Get the Homeschoolersmug. Let's balance that other definition; homeschooling is an option for any parent, even those who can afford private school tuition.
Because of their structure, there are things that institutional schools can't offer as well as homeschools, things like independence, choice, parental responsibility, freedom, flexibility, a tailored curriculum, one-on-one attention (for longer than five minutes) and far better teacher/student ratios.
Institutional schools lend themselves better to peer pressure, intimidation, student rivalry, cliques, faking one's way though class, indifference, truancy and functional illiteracy.
If a parent were a musician and formally taught their child an instrument at home, no-one would be concerned. Yet, when it comes to the 3 R's, that unnerves people.
People who oppose homeschooling throw up stereotypes like sheltering and hating everyone else. But if your knowledge of something comes from stereotypes, then what does that say about the quality of your education? The internet is used by homeschoolers, and has made information more accessible, giving a far wider range of viewpoints on any subject than a time-strapped teacher being steered by a predetermined, state-approved curriculum.
Homeschoolers don't believe that institutional schools (or those in them) are 100 per cent evil. You get good students in all types of schools, and bad ones too. But in institutional schools, it's easier to fall through the cracks, simply because they're bigger.

Person A: I am homeschooling Madison and McKaylynn because the Bible encourages me to.
Person B: I went to public school, go to church every Sunday and try to live my life in a manner that would please God. I've read from Genesis to Revelation--I don't remember seeing that.
Person A: Why don't you remember Deuteronomy 6:7 along with Luke 4:4?
Person B: Because I've got better things to do than teach my children or remember those verses, especially if it's the Old Testament. In the New Testament, Jesus said that we are to live by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God, but The Gospels are impractical.
