I fail to see this strange young man an exapmple against home schooling. Come back with statistics and information if you want to make an argument against it.

Yes, I do. While in public schools I've seen plenty of kids that are just like him. A few of my childhood friends were home schooled and turned out just fine.

I'm homeschooled, and while I'm not the smartest person on earth, it's a hell of a lot better than public school.

And my social life is great, thank you.

I'm homeschooled, and while I don't have the best(or any) social life, I have to stay home for weeks at a time due to serious health reasons. There is no way I can go to public school.

Besides, all those people is way too overwhelming. I'd probably be constantly stressed out like I was before I got pulled out of school after 3rd grade.

Interesting. If I was in public school I'd be in 10th grade next year, you? Unless that's too personal. Homeschooling is awesome because I'm almost done with high school now. It's alot easier to go at your own pace.

We had dumbasses like him in public school as well. This topic suggests that kids in public schools are geniuses and home schooled kids are retards. Which isn't true.

One would assume that a person who studys the spelling and definitions of the words would have keen vocabulary skills, but the champion doesn't, so it must be a trend. He's the most inarticulate personI've ever seen. You don't say "I don't know" when someone asks what someone said. You say *I don't recall* I don't recollect* or*I don't remember*

Spelling Bees are for 1st & 2nd graders and idiot savants anyway. So it's no suprise that he's a jerk.

People fail to differentiate between homeschool kids who are kids that just don't go to school because it is inconvinient or the schools in their area are dangerous and kids who are held back from the world by overprotective parents. The former still does sports or something, gets to know kids, makes friends and turns out normal. The latter becomes a disgusting plague to mankind like the kid in this video. Oversheltered=loser. Homeschooled does not.

I have friends that have been homeschooled until the last few years of their high school education and they are what the mainstream of the world could consider fine, being the judgemental...*sigh*...

Anyways..I'm not picking sides here, but really---a case against homeschooling in general is less likely to go anywhere than a case against public schooling.
