My daughter went out to play today on the estate where we live, and a small group of children decided to be very unpleasent to her accusing her of being lazy because she's being home educated, telling her that all she must do all day is sit infront of the TV, trying to make her spell words to prove to them that she's not stupid. She's 8yrs old and has been home-educated all her life and to give her her due she stood her ground and defended herself telling them that she does study everyday and has the weekend off like them.(They all go to school) I know they're only kids who probably don't have any idea about home-ed, and if you're different it leaves you open to be singled out but I felt so angry and suspicious of what their parents are potentially saying. My family will of course rise above this silliness but I don't want my DD to have to put up with this. I also don't want to fall out with this family. Has anyone had a similar experience?
