They school I went to (will withhold name) was a kinda small town school about 150 per grade that without looking hard you could find a party to go to just about every night, kids dipped/chewed/smoked/drank on campus all the time, and it was surprising to hear a clean joke. We were allowed to go off campus for lunch and when class started a few kids would clime out of there cars and you could not see them for all the smoke that was coming out of their cars. There was one nationality of students that all but 2 in my grade dropped out by the time they were 16 years old out of over 30 and well over half were serving time in the can before they were 18. There was kids skipping class all the time with the "birds and the bees" Since I grew up without any of this stuff it was a whole new world out there, I still remember the first time I came home and said something I should not have. The next thing I knew I was over a knee with my backside getting warmed. I think the main thing is that I had parents that cared and that makes all the difference in the world and for that reason I don't see the problem with home schooling because it requires the parents to spend time with their kids and teach them something other than how to watch TV and play video games. Ok now time to get off my soap box.....</blockquote>
