hs kids demented????? the view thinks so

Ditto

Our homeschooling group has started a email/letter writing campaign to ABC letting them know we do not appreciate Joy's comments. I will remain calm and send an email as well.

 

Thank goodness their view is not the majorities view! How embarrassing for them that their view is so narrow!

 

I saw this episode and my jaw dropped! Elizabeth was obviously intelligently discussing the options available to the Obama's for their girls and Joy went off when homeschooling was mentioned. Oh well, I guess just consider the source!

 

This has been a month ago... I guess we're not getting an apology. I don't own a TV, so I only read about it. I sent an e-mail to the show, but now I'm tempted to bring it to the attention of the shows sponsors. I don't know what products are advertised during the show, but if they are from family-friendly companies, they might put some pressure on them to apologize. I don't care what the lady thinks, but she abused her position by slandering the homeschool community; that's what should not be tolerated!

 

I do not even watch it, I watched it once and i got so sick of Rosie on there , and the others have no clue what is actually going on, They probably never did ANY study on HS kids and how far they have actually gone, winning the spelling bee and so on, I mean look in our History, there have been several FAMOUS people that was HS. So there for they need to keep quiet and do THERE HOMEWORK
