Bryce, I have read many of your posts and I am impressed with your "get up and go". I was not aware, however, that you are home schooled.
I am wondering why. Are you too far from a high school, so if you went to public school, you would spend way too much time riding a school bus? Or is the available school of such poor quality that you just don"t want to go there? Or is there a reason that you need to be home, such as to care for ailing relatives, or even to run a farm?
There are things that a person has to take in public (or parochial) school that probably are BS. But many of the classes are very useful, especially if you need to know a certain set of things to be qualified to take a more advanced course or courses.
But academics are only part of schooling. Another very important part of growing up is to learn to get along with and deal with a variety of other persons. I think that going to school and being exposed to lots of other students and teachers really helps this process.
I have known people who, usually for religious reasons, were home schooled. Some of them were outstanding in their academic progress, and some of them were really behind. This probably depended on their personal ability and the quality of the help and attention they got from their parents, or whoever was doing the home schooling for them.
But many of the people I have known that had been home schooled seemed fairly socially awkward. They just didn"t know how to deal with people, and it really showed. It is possible that even if they had gone to regular school, they would have been that way, but I doubt it. Contact with people is a big part of educating a person.
I don"t remember just how old you are, but please consider going to school. You only get one chance to be young! Don"t blow it.
