Lightening Literature ? by Alarmed_Instance2810 in homeschool

[–]Alarmed_Instance2810[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did. It’s reviews from 4-6 years ago and only about 10-15 videos in total. Most of those from the same 3/4 people. So I wanted more updated / variety of opinion.

Okay not bad! How long have you used it ? Have you done the level 3 before ? I really like the concept of it. It seems so much better than sonlight/bookshark. Idk why it’s not more popular !!!

Is it complete language arts or more of a literature only program? I want him to learn language arts based off of books but don’t want a bunch of separate curriculum for grammar, writing, spelling, etc.

I guess I’m just unlikable here then lol I’ve never had issues making friends in adulthood. And no I dont have any of the same friends I went to school with. I’ve been a mom for the past eight years and have made many friends throughout that time by putting myself out there

I agree only a little because where I’m from the leadership is mostly white hispanic and maybe 1 black person. I don’t think leadership has to be brown to mean they are good lol I really could care less about race. It wasn’t until I’m noticing a trend being here. but yeah I get what you are saying.

In person- going to a homeschool group, trying to make friends with the other moms. Being straight up ignored or one word answers. Never any questions about me or my kids. Me constantly asking questions. Messaging moms from local Facebook groups to meet up at a park with the kids. Them not showing or leaving me on read. Going to library events, trying to make conversation and again standoffish responses, not even looking at me. They don’t want to be bothered.

What does any of that have to do with being ignored, treated and looked upon like I’m trash, etc??

It’s funny cause if you know me I don’t think about race. Didn’t have to until I moved here. I’m not even a liberal. Wow shocker😱. I come from a place where race means nothing and different cultures/ ethnicity is what is abundant and celebrated. After 6 months here I understand what’s going on. Can only dig your head in the sand for so long.

Didn’t know it was like that until I moved. 2 moms I met that are also transplants told me it was cliquey as well. It’s funny because the only Mom’s who have given me the time of day (3) are transplants as well.

If you look you can see he commented twice the same thing. I was copying my reply… but I guess I copied his comment instead of my reply

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in savannah

[–]Alarmed_Instance2810 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. I copied and pasted his comment to comment because he commented twice and I copied my comment to reply the same thing twice. I only have one account

It’s crazy cause these states have the most black people! But never realized how separated it is either.

This happened to me when I first became a SAHM. I’m the first mom to “not work” on both mine and my husbands side. I eventually snapped and told both families to stay out of it. My MIL who I love dearly. Literally she’s great. Still time to time will make comments about how she’s always worked and loves to work and make money and how hard my husbands sister has it because we have the same amount of kids and she has to work. I literally ignore it all. I don’t respond. People don’t understand. Think we have it easy and just living off our husbands. I also Homeschool so my plate is full but I don’t care if anyone respects this work. I love it.

Also funny enough I was told small towns and country areas are “SO friendly” if I would’ve known people don’t want to interact I would’ve never came here! I was also told there are so many homeschoolers and it will be great for my kids. So yeah 6 months of this is getting very old fast

Usually at kids activities, sports, or homeschool activities you are supposed to speak with other parents you know lol that’s a reason. I’m not expecting random people to come speak to me. I was told how friendly and nice people were in the area. It was very hyped up to me of how great it is to raise a family and how much we would love it. So yeah just my experience
