Random Student Drug Tests: I'll homeschool if I have to

[stinkyattic]

p.s. it seems to me that homeschooled kids are kinda weird in a way since my stepdad told me about this boy who was homeschooled all his life and then went to my school(all boys christian school) and got fucked with really badly.

Sounds like the other kids were the misadjusted ones... my lil bro dod homeschool for a while and was still elected class president for junior and senior years.

Anyway back to the topic, it's fucked; teachers should be TEACHING, educating, nurturing young minds, not being put in the role of police/disciplinarians... sad that schools feel the need to do these things because some parents fail to supervise their childrens' lives out of school... and everyone else has to suffer for it.

Greenjeans, you go girl, I'll bet you could give your kids one heck of an education. And give the administrators a piece of your mind!!!

BTW don't you and Papi have a few kids between you? And the school systems get state funding on a per-head basis... your household probably has about $20,000 a year in 'pull' of what the school would lose if you yanked all your rugrats to homeschool or private school. Hint hint... you go in there and show them waht's what.

I know from experience that public school is just one big fuckin daycare. In the time I was there, we went from having no drug tests at all, to being drug tested for any extraciriccular activites we wanted to participate in.

Greenjeans, Im happy that you seem to know that no matter how much you yell at your kids or tell them not to do something, that theyll do it anyways, I think the way you handled your kid with your cigs was simply ace. If I ever decide to have kids, I hope that I dont treat them the way my dad was to me, or worse.

Also, homeschooled kids are wierd as hell.. Theres a kid that lives 3 houses up from me thats homeschooled, and he has been his whole life. Hes atleast 17, and hes WIERRRRD. Seriously, kids that are homeschooled their whole lives are being set up to get scraight FUCKED in the real world.

Those kids are goin' down.

If you feel that way, you should make a personal effort NOT to be an ass to them... fix the world by starting with your own approach to it.

I don't see how a homeschooled person would be "fucked" or "weird" as compared to someone who goes to public schools. :wtf: I find homeschooled kids not be as judgemental, like judging people and saying they're fucked for the real world. How do you know that? No public school means them not getting picked on (higher self esteem), not being controlled by "teachers" (not as angry or frustrated), they're not put under pressure to study for exams (calm and collected), they won't get urine tested to play sports, need I go on?

Schooling is schooling in my eyes. Parents teaching their own children won't be giving them urine samples when they want to play soccer with some friends, or won't take their cell phone away and go through your private info.

Public school are fucked, and if I can afford to take the time to teach my own kids, I will (when I have kids) but that's hard to do in this day and age.

Word.

Tomorrow, I should be getting a call saying I failed a drug test for the second time, happy birthday to me. I'm guessing I'll have to go to drug therapy or some shit. Fuckin' wack. I have decent grades (straight A's and an F in math, but the F will be at least a D soon) and I'm not doin' nothin' to hurt no one. I'm not even in an extra curricular activity really. Its just that my school is a big nazis and put everyones name on a list saying they are in 'skillz usa' so that they can get away with testing us.

I really don't see what gives them the right to drug test students anyway. Like, what the FUCK does that have to do with education? So your going to deny an education to the kids who need it most (since us 'druggies' are dumb right?)

I don't remember getting finger printed as a kid, in school that is, and there is no chance I'd go for that now.

And there is no way they would get my permission to finger print my kids, if/when I have kids :thumbsup:

They wanted my fingerprints in kindergarden for "emergency use only" My folks ain't stupid, so they said no. :thumbsup:

Here in America they don't even ask the parents..they TELL THEM.

The day "they" push a potroast out through a Pringel's can is the day "they "can tell me to fingerprint my kids.
