What are some funny, sarcastic, blatant, goofy, or otherwise odd statements about parenting and homeschool that you'd like to wear, but never would?
I actually own one that is tucked into the back of a drawer somewhere. It's bright red and in black letters says, "How may I ignore you today?" It has a long backstory from my days in working in banking and secretarial jobs.... I keep it for the sarcasm. But I don't ever wear it....
I like the one that says, "I looked at Public School and that's why I homeschool." But I would never wear it.
"I Homeschool because there are better things to learn than sit down and shut up." "I homeschool because I've seen the village and I don't want it raising my child!" (I really like this one but it's a bit antagonistic for my personality.) "Homeschool because it's easier than getting them ready for the bus." "Public school?" Aren't you worried about socialization?" "Warning: Unsocialized Homeschooler" "I go to school in my pajamas." I find these at least somewhat amusing but would never wear them or let my kids wear them.
I would wear shirts like that....a lot. My kids had onsies that said things like Powered by Mama's Milk Jesus was breastfed I'd totally wear homeschooling tshirts that said things like mentioned above.
"I've seen the village and I don't want it raising my kids." :embarrassed: I didn't realize this was already posted above.
I had a onsie for Micah that said, "My Mommy is Boobylicious." There aren't many things I wouldn't wear. This one, I wouldn't wear: DH used to manage a gaming store. The work shirts sported the motto, "We put the F U in fun."
I once saw a picture of mom wearing a t shirt that said supply and a baby wearing a t shirt that said demand. I'd never wear anything like that!
"I homeschool, what's your superpower?" "If you find me talking to myself, don't worry. I'm a homeschooler, I'm just having a parent/teacher conference" "No, I'm not concerned with socialization." "Sorry you don't think you could be with your kids all day. I can't imagine being without them all day".
Rats.....lost my post. Anyway, good ones ladies! How about "You think my kids are weird? Thanks! I was worried they'd end up normal." Grades are for meat, not children. I think I would like one that says, "The First Rule Of Education Should Be: "Do No Harm."
Jake wears an "Unsocialized Homeschooler" shirt all the time. I don't even think he pays attention to what's on it anymore however if anyone was to MEET him - he's SO not an introvert of any kind...
Our homeschool group's first official T-shirt that we would wear on field trips actually said "Warning Unsocialized Homeschooler" on the back. Our new ones have a pic of a mad scientist on the back that says "Our Mascot can Genetically Mutate Your Mascot". I almost bought one that said "SHHH, you're in our classroom" with a picture of the whole world.
I would like to have one that says this, (don't know if it exists now or not) "You let your child go to school?!"
I told Carl that; he says as long as your dh doesn't wear one that says "My wife...." Faythe bought Phillip one for Christmas that says, "Zombies are afraid of homeschoolers!"
