The Twelve Days of Homeschooling

(A variation on The 12 Days of Christmas, to brighten your day!)

On the 1st day of home school my neighbor said to me, "Can you homeschool legally?"

On the 2nd day of home school my neighbor said to me, "Are they socialized? Can you homeschool legally?"

On the 3rd day of home school my neighbor said to me, "Do you give them tests? Are they socialized? Can you homeschool legally?"

On the 4th day of home school my neighbor said to me, "What about P.E.? Do you give them tests? Are they socialized? Can you homeschool legally?"

On the 5th day of home school my neighbor said to me, "YOU ARE SO STRANGE! What about P.E.? Do you give them tests? Are they socialized? Can you homeschool legally?"

On the 6th day of home school my neighbor said to me, "How long will you homeschool? YOU ARE SO STRANGE! What about P.E.? Do you give them tests? Are they socialized? Can you homeschool legally?"

On the 7th day of home school my neighbor said to me, "Look at what they're missing! How long will you homeschool? YOU ARE SO STRANGE! What about P.E.? Do you give them tests? Are they socialized? Can you homeschool legally?"

On the 8th day of home school my neighbor said to me, "Why do you do this? Look at what they're missing! How long will you homeschool? YOU ARE SO STRANGE! What about P.E.? Will you give them tests? Are they socialized? Can you homeschool legally?"

On the 9th day of home school my neighbor said to me, "They'll miss the prom. Why do you do this? Look at what they're missing! How long will you homeschool? YOU ARE SO STRANGE! What about P.E.? Will you give them tests? Are they socialized? Can you homeschool legally?"

On the 10th day of home school my neighbor said to me, "What about graduation? They'll miss the prom. Why do you do this? Look at what they're missing! How long will you homeschool? YOU ARE SO STRANGE! What about P.E.? Will you give them tests? Are they socialized? Can you homeschool legally?"

On the 11th day of home school my neighbor said to me, "I could never do that. What about graduation? They'll miss the prom. Why do you do this? Look at what they're missing! How long will you homeschool? YOU ARE SO STRANGE! What about P.E.? Do you give them tests? Are they socialized? Can you homeschool legally?"

On the 12th day of home school my neighbor said to me, "Can they go to college? I could never do that. What about graduation? They'll miss the prom. Why do you do this? Look at what they're missing! How long will you homeschool? YOU ARE SO STRANGE! What about P.E.? Do you give them tests? Are they socialized? Can you homeschool legally?"

On the 13th day of home school I thoughtfully replied: "Colleges love homeschoolers. Yes, you can do this. They can have graduation. We don't like the prom. We do it 'cause we like it. They are missing nothing. We'll homeschool forever. WE ARE NOT STRANGE! WE teach them P.E., and we give them tests. They are socialized. AND WE HOMESCHOOL LEGALLY."

On the 14th day of home school my neighbor said to me, "How can I get started? Why didn't you tell me? Where do I buy curriculum? When is the next conference? WILL PEOPLE THINK WE'RE STRANGE? I think we can do this, if you will help us. Can we join P.E.? And WE'LL homeschool legally."
