Some folks just think its fun Josie.
Unfortunately, some people just don't understand why we do it. Some people think we think what everyone else does isn't good enough for our kids, but that has nothing to do with it. I can't tell you how many times I've had people to ask in not so many words if I think my kid is better than theirs. Others make assumptions that something isn't normal in our homes, since we don't let our kids out, most don't realize that the average homeschooler has a busier calender than most public schooled kids. It puts a target on us. Of course doing anything thats different from others makes you a target. Even having chickens in your backyard in this modern world
