Thank you for being happy for my son!<br /><br />Also, about junior high: ugh. I actually think it would be better for everyone if kids got to stay home and be homeschooled during those few years. We did homeschool our youngest son, from 4th through 8th grade. And my friend whose boy was in his class at their Catholic school (who would have loved to homeschool him, but didn't have the support from her husband to do it) said we were doing him a great favor by letting him learn away from all the angst and drama. So every time I found myself worrying that he was "missing out" on things by being home with us, I would remind myself that most of the things he was missing out on were negative.Laura Pearlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16108081477711821273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7932448625116124069.post-72966850674493705852017-08-19T10:41:37.592-04:002017-08-19T10:41:37.592-04:00It was tough (although when you hear some of the t...It was tough (although when you hear some of the things other families have to go through, it was relatively minor). But it was a good lesson in keeping your head high and not retaliating with anger, even when people are trying to spread lies about you.Laura Pearlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16108081477711821273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7932448625116124069.post-77238267287255167342017-07-23T21:44:04.969-04:002017-07-23T21:44:04.969-04:00Glad you're back!
