We already identify pedos on Facebook and no one seems to give a shit.

Re: [AFMUG] Who is going to WISPAMERICA?

[Steve Jones]

i think a fair trade would be we will hand over 1 AR-15 for each pedo head
delivered. They want the assault rifles off the streets, they bring pedo
heads.

I dont know what youre supposed to do with the bodies when you bring heads.
Is is bad form to just leave them in a pile?

[AFMUG] OT: online k12 homeschool options

[Steve Jones]

I have an incoming Junior and an incoming 8th grader Id prefer not to send
back to Illinois brick and mortar for at least the upcoming year with all
the covid games and politicking going on. The schools we deal with have
obvious union pressure to have ensured the remote curriculum failed, dont
want to play that game again the coming year.

Have any of you personally dealt with or had customers relay any good
solutions? Im looking for instructor led homeschool as educating without
beatings isnt something im really capable of.

there is a BYU curriculum I looked at but that gets some hefty pricing and
i couldn't ascertain whether its acceptable in Illinois

Re: [AFMUG] OT: online k12 homeschool options

[Adam Moffett]

My kids are home-schooled.

In NY you can pay for private tutors if you want to, but the 
parent/guardians have to provide a certain percentage of the instruction 
(I want to say >50%).  They don't want some scheister to start a private 
school and pretend they're "homeschooling" to avoid oversight on the 
school.  You have to submit an instruction plan to a bureaucrat who 
approves it (or tells you what to fix).  You then have to submit 
quarterly reports on the kids' progress on the instruction plan.  There 
are minimum standards your plan has to meet, like so many hours of PE 
and so many hours of American History, etc etc.  The way they catch 
people paying someone else to teach the home-school kids is when they're 
dumb enough to submit the exact same instruction plan for multiple, 
unrelated kids.  So if you have to cheat this, at least make sure your 
accomplice is smart.


I know in PA they have less reporting than in NY, but they do home 
visits and want to see copies of school work the kids have done.  I've 
heard that in TX there's very little oversight.   I've heard you just 
tell them you're homeschooling and they leave you alone, but I don't 
know if that's fact or just crap people say.


but literally every state does this differently.  You'll have to get 
with someone who's familiar with how it works in Illinois.

I may have failed to make my point.  My point was an online 
homeschool program is probably illegal in NY because the parent is not 
doing the instruction.

Re: [AFMUG] OT: online k12 homeschool options

[Steve Jones]

My neice was "homeschooled" At the time at least, oversight was more of a
word than an actual thing. she, luckily was self motivated enough to
actually do the work. My kids arent that motivated, and im not a good
technical instructor of children. There are a few programs people have
recommended, that they use, but some are too inexpensive to trust, some are
too religious, etc.
Im tempted with my boy to just have him drop out, adjudicate him so he can
get his GED and go to trade school or community college now.

I have two inbound kids in the next few years, but I think the plague
politics will be gone by the time they get there, but then again, theyll be
hitting school entry during the next election, so i cant hold my breath.

google search is an ad nightmare.

My older daughter has some intervention courses she participates in, so I
need to be mindful of that, but I personally think the intervention was
required because of the cookie cutter approach in public school. We have
two private schools here, but theyre under the thumb of the plague politics
as well, so theres no gain in that.

Probably a little of both. Not that there weren't any weird kids in 
public school, but the homeschool kids were always a special kind of 
weird because they spent more time with their parents than with their 
peer group.

Probably were weird kids though. Kids are generally weird

Re: [AFMUG] OT: online k12 homeschool options

[Adam Moffett]

They do trend weird.  In fact, I'd say homeschoolers range from a little 
weird to effin cray-cray.



There are some whose kids have weird health conditions the school can't 
accommodate.  Like an extreme allergy or an unusual disability.  These 
are usually fairly sane.



The religious homeschoolers are often trying to protect their children 
from the perils of the sinful world around them, and those are some of 
the less crazy ones.  However, some of the religious ones are 
flat-earthers and young earth creationists who don't want their children 
brainwashed with secular sciences and/or have a persecution complex.  
The school teaches facts like evolution and the earth being round, so 
therefore it's persecution.



There are also people with weird lifestyles that the school system won't 
accommodate.  These could be vegans, nudists, or almost any other kind 
of weirdo you can imagine.  I'm not judging, I'm just sayin that they 
are, by definition, weird.  They're generally relatively safe and 
normal.  I don't worry about them doing or saying anything too insane, 
and I get along just fine with the vegans in particular.  You just have 
to make sure to make something they can eat when they come over.



There are some who have, shall we say, "less mainstream" notions about 
how school should work.  "Radical un-schooling" for example.   If you 
read about unschooling I think it's a method that really could work well 
for the right type of curious and self-motivated kid & parent.  It also 
may result in a kid who's 12 and can't friggin read because his 
"un-schooling" curriculum is video games and TV.I exaggerate, but 
only a little.



And finally, just to put the fear of God into you, there was one home 
school family in the co-op who I suspect are child abusers. You see, 
school is full of mandated reporters, but if you're at home then there's 
nobody to see the evidence (and I won't elaborate on this).



So if you join a co-op or otherwise link up with other homeschool 
families just be sure to practice your poker face, because you'll hear 
some weird shit.

Re: [AFMUG] OT: online k12 homeschool options

[Adam Moffett]

I'm at risk of overemphasizing the crazies.  Most of the homeschoolers 
I've met are just a little weird, and maybe 5-10% are lunatics.  There 
might be a similar lunatic ratio in public school, but maybe you just 
don't meet as many of the other parents in public school.

Re: [AFMUG] OT: online k12 homeschool options

[Steve Jones]

Theres a co-op in the town I work, they're outstanding, apostolic
Christian's, but not the creepy ones. Those kids speak multiple languages,
are educated to collegiate levels by middle school, are pretty well
rounded, definitely not vegans. By today's standards, they may skirt some
mandated reporting, I assume many of the homes dont spare the rod. I'd give
my left arm for the kids to be in that, but neither my wife or I have the
skills required of one of the parents, plus we are heathens.
Most of these kids get their diploma equivalent and start businesses,
mostly successful,many even stay with the church.

I think I'd feel safer around a flat earther than a vegan though

Re: [AFMUG] OT: online k12 homeschool options

[Adam Moffett]

Why I'm there is another tangent and another category.

When I was in school in the 80's, if Kid A was wailing on Kid B then an 
adult would step in and probably put Kid A in a headlock until he's 
under control.  Today, they aren't allowed to physically touch the kids, 
and they're somewhat restricted in what they're even allowed to say to 
them.  So today Kid A gets asked nicely to please stop doing that to Kid B.


That's all fine and good unless you're Kid B.  My son was Kid B. Kid A's 
mom was president of the PTA and refused to believe her special 
offspring could have done anything wrong.  School did both jack and 
shit.  So my wife said to hell with NY schools.

When I was in school in the 60s and 70s, we had boxing gloves.  If you got into 
a fight an old navy boxing teacher would give you both gloves you would would 
duke it out.  I thought it was great fun.  But I generally came out on top.  
Literally.  I would borrow the gloves and fight during recess for fun at times.

Why I'm there is another tangent and another category.

When I was in school in the 80's, if Kid A was wailing on Kid B then an adult 
would step in and probably put Kid A in a headlock until he's under control.  
Today, they aren't allowed to physically touch the kids, and they're somewhat 
restricted in what they're even allowed to say to them.  So today Kid A gets 
asked nicely to please stop doing that to Kid B.

That's all fine and good unless you're Kid B.  My son was Kid B. Kid A's mom 
was president of the PTA and refused to believe her special offspring could 
have done anything wrong.  School did both jack and shit.  So my wife said to 
hell with NY schools.

They do trend weird.  In fact, I'd say homeschoolers range from a little weird 
to effin cray-cray.



There are some whose kids have weird health conditions the school can't 
accommodate.  Like an extreme allergy or an unusual disability.  These are 
usually fairly sane.



The religious homeschoolers are often trying to protect their children from the 
perils of the sinful world around them, and those are some of the less crazy 
ones.  However, some of the religious ones are flat-earthers and young earth 
creationists who don't want their children brainwashed with secular sciences 
and/or have a persecution complex.  The school teaches facts like evolution and 
the earth being round, so therefore it's persecution.



There are also people with weird lifestyles that the school system won't 
accommodate.  These could be vegans, nudists, or almost any other kind of 
weirdo you can imagine.  I'm not judging, I'm just sayin that they are, by 
definition, weird.  They're generally relatively safe and normal.  I don't 
worry about them doing or saying anything too insane, and I get along just fine 
with the vegans in particular.  You just have to make sure to make something 
they can eat when they come over.



There are some who have, shall we say, "less mainstream" notions about how 
school should work.  "Radical un-schooling" for example.   If you read about 
unschooling I think it's a method that really could work well for the right 
type of curious and self-motivated kid & parent.  It also may result in a kid 
who's 12 and can't friggin read because his "un-schooling" curriculum is video 
games and TV.I exaggerate, but only a little.



And finally, just to put the fear of God into you, there was one home school 
family in the co-op who I suspect are child abusers.  You see, school is full 
of mandated reporters, but if you're at home then there's nobody to see the 
evidence (and I won't elaborate on this).



So if you join a co-op or otherwise link up with other homeschool families just 
be sure to practice your poker face, because you'll hear some weird shit.

I got thumped and choked by a few teachers, I was right at the end of the
road for teachers being allowed to handle business properly.  Now they
allow kids like i was to disrupt everybody else. I was messing with this
one kid at lunch one time because he had the same last name as me. After he
had had enough, he popped me in the nose, probably broke it, but it
resolved the situation and he was able to finish his grilled cheese in
peace. Teachers saw it, even walked by while I mopped my nose. It was
simple, I was being a bully, he was done being a bully, he addressed it
using terms that were clear and we both understood. The teachers saw that
it had been satisfied and left it alone. Today I probably would have been
taken to an ER and the school would have paid the bill, that poor kid that
was just enjoying chili and grilled cheese day would be expelled, probably
arrested.
We didnt have gloves, we had an open lot across from two of the schools, I

Re: [AFMUG] OT: online k12 homeschool options

[Adam Moffett]

I will say the religious homeschool co-ops (of any faith) tend to have 
very well behaved children.  I think the core of it is they set a 
consequence and then stick to it.  It's not about corporal punishment or 
physical intervention so much, but I think knowing that option is on the 
table does help.  When that's not an option then the only thing that 
keeps a kid in line is their own tolerance for not being liked.  If they 
don't care what anybody thinks then they can do whatever they want.


I'm not a subject matter expertjust a guy BS'ing on the Internet.  
So that theory is worth everything you paid for it.

I was standing in line at the cafeteria and KidA starting giving KidB a 
bad time.  KidB usually dressed funny and was the meek-quiet-type.  He 
took the haranguing for about 5 minutes and then broke KidA's nose.  He 
went way up on the popularity chart and everyone suddenly had a lot of 
respect for KidB.  KidA was out cold and got a stout-swift-kick from 
everyone who saw it happen.

it.  It’s the fastest growing school in the state and a great option.  We’re 
also a part of a coop of other kids and my son loves that, too.  He’s not

from a little weird to effin cray-cray.

There are some whose kids have weird health conditions the
school can't accommodate. Like an extreme allergy or an
unusual disability.  These are usually fairly sane.

The religious homeschoolers are often trying to protect their
children from the perils of the sinful world around them, and
those are some of the less crazy ones.  However, some of the
religious ones are flat-earthers and young earth creationists
who don't want their children brainwashed with secular
sciences and/or have a persecution complex. The school teaches
facts like evolution and the earth being round, so therefore
it's persecution.

have 175 of them or so.  I could part with perhaps 100 of them.  I use 
tons of Primex every year but not so much in that part number.  Have 
you tried Core Telecom?

we're looking for _immediate_ delivery of several dozen per week for 
mid-boxes.  About 7500 for next 3 years, probably more: Primex 
125-1790 at a normal pricing.  Do you know of someone who can provide 
a quote? Or even a similar part that works.
