Homeschooling

Kim and I have decided to homeschool our son. After seeing some of the recent high school graduates when I went to college a couple of years ago and some of the teenagers in our youth classes at the church it's obvious to me that I can do better than the public school.

In both cases (college and church) there were teenagers who could barely read. And to get them to spell something? Forget it. It was painful to listen to them stumble through words while reading out loud. And I'm not talking about just the big words, the small everyday used ones were equally hard.

It sickened me. How many of our tax dollars got wasted with these kids? If they can't read they shouldn't have been able to graduate. Hell they shouldn't have been able to pass 8th grade.

So yeah, I'm gonna home school Tucker.
