And I ve experienced exactly what your talking about in each setting. I think that sometimes people act that way because they are insecure with their choice, so they are over defensive.... Just a thought. Isn't it great to live in a country with choices!<br />LouisianaMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09971732490986626630noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5140158725653920035.post-34187696816121354972013-02-11T20:33:36.280-07:002013-02-11T20:33:36.280-07:00moms are always battling this out in posts about b...moms are always battling this out in posts about being a stay-at-home mom vs. working from home mom vs. working away from home mom<br />...<br />it's so dumb. they're all three choices. not a single one is better than the other. <br />maybe it's just women... no, it's people. <br />...MamaThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10253228401557118155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5140158725653920035.post-43424624845261636922013-02-11T19:45:45.941-07:002013-02-11T19:45:45.941-07:00i understand all the different perspectives very c...i understand all the different perspectives very clearly. i, personally, have experienced all of them. there is really no excuse for making yourself feel better by putting others down. and not "you" nicole, just the generic "you". ya know... everyone. :) <br />pride.<br />it sucks. i hope this post opens everyones who reads it eyes. your choice isn't better or worse than anyone elses. it's a choice. that's all. a decision you made. the decision-maker isn't any better or worse than any other decision-maker either...<br />we're all God's children and He loves us all the same.MamaThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10253228401557118155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5140158725653920035.post-29678555796984462992013-02-11T12:53:27.341-07:002013-02-11T12:53:27.341-07:00what a great post MamaT. I'm currently going ...what a great post MamaT. I'm currently going though the "how will we choose to educate our children" dilemma, and these thoughts are rampant in my mind as well. Not the "i'm a better parent if I do THIS, or THAT" thought, just all the thoughts on the many options we have before us, and what is best for us.<br /><br />I think you are doing great, and working with what you've got. I fully support the choice you made to send your kiddos to public school. And I support it because you don't just push their education off on someone else. You make SURE your kids are doing what they need to do for themselves, and also educating them when they are home. You are encouraging them to learn at school, and supporting them and teaching them at home :)You've really made the choice that works best for YOUR family.<br /><br />Sorry you've been feeling that crap from other moms who make a different choice. It's tough in this society, I think, to make the choice to homeschool. Most homeschooling families I know only have support from others that homeschool, or other church people. Many of them get a lot of flack from the other side as well. Not an excuses to act holier than thou, but a good thing to keep in mind when thinking about where they are coming from.<br />love you sister!<br /><br /><br />Nicnichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07710494880338595921noreply@blogger.com
