I could care less what this geek does. I had a very good education. I will not explain myself to a loser such as yourself. Spout all you want . I dont care to build a web site nor do I want to build a web site. That means nothing to me or a lot of people. People such as yourself who have nothing better to do than sit at home and critisize other people have the time to do that. I personally am a hard working person and have other more important things to do than build a website for geeks. You have no idea what your talking about when it comes to me so dont assume that you do. Your a loud mouth egotistical arrogant pig. Go play chess and shut your mouth for once.

So now you are insulting a 13 year old kid, who you never met, for volunteering several hours each week to help out other kids? Yeah, you learned GREAT social skills, didn't you?
Toooooooooooo funny!

You posted it on here for anyone to say anything they like about anyone so stop talking about other people. Listen I dont care what you say or who you know or what you do. Your comments and suggestions are terrible and you constantly put woman down. So why dont you go to an all mens web site where I think people may care what you say.

Several people have thanked me for my advice on this forum, so I think I will stay, thank you very much.
Also, I'd be you have spent as much time ragging on your boyfriend's ex as I have spent "ragging" on women.
I believe both parents have equal rights, and equal responsibilities. I have no patience with men or women that deny the rights of the other party or fail in their responsibilities. I hold this opinion without regard to gender. If you can find some posts where I have given different advice or criticism to men than women on the same issue, please show me some links. Otherwise, you are once again talking out of your rear end.

again you have no idea what your talking about. My boyfriends ex is a loser. I want you to tell me this. How do you think its fair that 2 people go into a marriage supposedly equally. We all know that 80% or more of the men in a relationship make more money than the woman as did my boyfriend. In the end she gets the house and all property, alimony, child support which is a given. He paid that even before he was ordered too. she got the child, and yet she cheated for 10 years, lied, manipulated, has turned her son into a liar and a sneak. She claims she has no money but she does everything. She had a hsyterectomy a year ago. and she claims she still cant work. Had 3 different drs sign letters for her so she can sit on her but and collect his money. And by collecting his money I mean he is left right now with $100.00 a week. How is that fair and equal. This divorce is going to go to trial because she wants him to pay her cobra for a year and he wont agree to it. She got everything else. She acts like he owes her something for her cheating on him for all those years and he finally smartened up and got out. And mind you the last 10 yrs he decided to stay in the house for the child they did not live as man and wife. They had separate bedrooms, did nothing together except to build a front for their son when they went to family functions or holidays. and all the while she was sleeping with every cop she could find. How is this right and fair? That is why I get so angry spout off about her. Please give me your expert advice on this. and seeing as I am a woman defending a man I am hoping that you can give me some good advice like you say you do for other people.

You're not good with this "reading" thing, are you?
Where did I ever claim that your boyfriend's ex was not a loser?
My argument is only that his current girlfriend is also a loser.

It most certainly IS a condemnation of home schooling! Home schooled kids tend to be more immature, selfish and ignorant of social skills. They tend to think the world revolves around them. Some are fine but, most are not. This is supported by many studies. I have met hundreds of home school parents and all of them are overbearing and controlling of their kids. They can't control the world so they control their defenseless children. Some day this will be illegal and none too soon! I know several adults who were home schooled and they truly wish their parents had not done that to them. They feel like freaks.

And what the hell does Columbine have to do with any of this? You truly are an idiot.

tbyte, you truly are an idiot.

Watch. This is how you "cite" sources:
HSLDA | Academic Statistics on Homeschooling

In 1997, a study of 5,402 homeschool students from 1,657 families was released. It was entitled, "Strengths of Their Own: Home Schoolers Across America." The study demonstrated that homeschoolers, on the average, out-performed their counterparts in the public schools by 30 to 37 percentile points in all subjects. A significant finding when analyzing the data for 8th graders was the evidence that homeschoolers who are homeschooled two or more years score substantially higher than students who have been homeschooled one year or less. The new homeschoolers were scoring on the average in the 59th percentile compared to students homeschooled the last two or more years who scored between 86th and 92nd percentile. i

This was confirmed in another study by Dr. Lawrence Rudner of 20,760 homeschooled students which found the homeschoolers who have homeschooled all their school aged years had the highest academic achievement.

Or how about The Wall Street Journal?:

The high scores are no fluke. As the movement grows larger and more diverse, evidence is mounting that home-schooling, once confined to the political and religious fringe, has achieved results not only on par with public education, but in some ways surpassing it.

Those links were from googling "homeschool sat test averages". Took me all of 30 seconds.

Now, you try!
