I had all kinds of bullies also but funny I’ve never wished I was home schooled. It wasn’t a thing when I was a child anyway. As my mom’s dependency on alcohol deepened and she became increasingly clingy there were plenty of days when I was glad to be away even if it meant having to navigate my bully mine field.

Our daughter requested home schooling but we were having none of it. She’s adulting now so we figure we were not complete failures as parents.
