Please stop questioning my competency and demanding to see my credentials. I didn't have to complete a course in catering to successfully cook dinner for my family; I don't need a degree in teaching to educate my children. If spending at least twelve years in the kind of chew-it-up-and-spit-it-out educational facility we call public school left me with so little information in my memory banks that I can't teach the basics of an elementary education to my nearest and dearest, maybe there's a reason I'm so reluctant to send my child to school.
Just one of 25 modest demands on The Bitter Homeschooler's Wish List. (via Fr. Daren) Yeah, and I like "quit asking us if it is legal," too. I know some people who have been asking me several times a year for the better part of the past decade. We're not in jail. The kids are alright. So please quit asking.
