Denim jumpers just don’t flatter every figure.

You are just too in love with selling wrapping paper every year to fundraise for your local public school.

You can’t wait to take out a 2nd mortgage on your home so you can afford to send your kids to private school.

You think carpool duty is awesome!

You don’t want the clerk at Wal-Mart to ask you why your kids are roaming around their store at noon on a Tuesday.
Did I miss anything?
Hilariously Homeschooling,

ha ha ha!loved this!
You don't want your kids to think for themselves??
You love making x number of packed lunches every morning for kids' lunches??
You just love a good evening out each year parents' evenings come around ??? (Seriously, if this is true, you need help!)
Love, Anne x
Love this, and yes so true about the clerk asking why aren't your kids in school!!
I love this! Thanks for the morning laugh.
Blessings,
Dawn
Great post! I can only think of one other reason:
You just love those teacher conferences, you know the ones where they tell you how great your child is doing, but then spend the rest of the year telling you how rotten they are.
Thanks! I sure needed the laugh this morning:)
Oh you missed one alright….
You should not become a homeschooler if…you want your child to be well socialized! Right???? hahaha
You have an aversion to wall-to-wall bookshelves.
You crack me up….and I have a drum roll for you….
the number ONE reason to homeschool
YOUR CHILDREN CAN DO THE LAUNDRY!!!hahahahahahahaha!
Love ya!
Fantastic! Thanks for the giggle this morning.
You should not homeschool if you love staying up until midnight working out an endless list of homework and projects.
I always laugh when my friends say that they "just could not homeschool" because they don't have the patience. Ok, but don't mind me if I enjoy my sleep while you are up all night coaching your child through the math problems they were assigned for homework… the very same stuff that we were done with by Noon.
HAHA great post and I like this one too
I love this! Hysterical!!~
Love It!
You should not become a homeschooler if you think your children would miss the verbal abuse and chaos of the "yellow bus" that transports them to and fro everyday!
Thanks, this was a lot of fun to read! I always feel sorry for the kids looking longingly out of the bus windows while we go for our walk.
You are so funny this rocks!!!
What about >When your child comes home to tell you that Billy told you where babies come from OR one I couldn't stand is when my son didn't have time to eat his lunch.
One I love the most is when we are in Walmart and the cashier asks Did you have a sick day………..NO…………..then he asks me do I tell her I homeschool????
Man do I NOT miss PS,Bless this Homeschool
I love it!!!
I would add:
If you DON'T like being with your kids!
That one's not really funny, but I'm always amazed at the people who say, "I could never spend that much time with my kids." They're YOUR kids! I find that bizarre.
Sheila from To Love, Honor and Vacuum.
I agree on this one…it's sad really.
Cute and true Sue- except I don't own denim jumpers…
Thanks for the laugh, Sue! It only took me about three years of homeschooling before I was comfortable taking my kids out during the day. Of course, after that, we occasionally had days where most of the schoolwork was done in the car! And I actually have a family photo in one of the early years of our homeschoolingl where we're all in denim! LOL!
Oh yes, you did miss something: 6) Because you don't want your children to be totally messed up by their lack of social development. LOL Who am I kidding! Homeschooled kids are invariably more socially adaptable to people of all ages, able to hold an intelligent conversation with an adult or play with a younger child.
So, so true.
#6 You think "creating an environment conducive to learning" is crowding 23 first-graders into a corner of an open-concept classroom.
I agree that I can't believe how many people have told me they can't imagine spending all that time with their kids. What? Why did you have kids? Bizarre.
"The children will miss the school breakfast and lunches because they are so healthy and nutritional. –And the school knows better than the parents about what they should eat."
Very funny! Where DID the denim jumper thing come from anyway? If people love them, more power to them. I have had people say to me "you don't Look like a homeschooler" ha ha
Many Christian homeschoolers are teaching purity and modesty as part of their education. The Bible says (somewhere in the NT, I think) that it is an abomination to God when men and women cross-dress (i.e. pants for the girls). And that a woman's dress shouldn't "make her brother stumble." SO, the denim-jumper-thing was born: practical, feminine, and modest.
I tried it, but DH likes me in my jeans.
Sounds like yours does too!
Funny stuff. We can definitely relate to #5.
I was a little worried about reading this, but I was relieved by the humor of this post. I like the one about taking out a second mortgage to send my kids to private school. I have many friends who have done that and have nothing left for college.
After much prayer, my husband finally allowed me to pull my kids out of public school just this past year. I love homeschooling! How I miss those long hours of frustrating "busy" homework that does nothing but bring tears of exasperation to the home. Not!
