Are obese individuals whose video game edumacation endowed them with such a robust world view that they felt compelled to convert to the Roman’s State-Established Syncretic Sun-Worshipping cult — too small a sample to be statistically representative of home skewlers?

Maybe you and Adam Perlman/Gadan should compare home-skewl. notes.

Let's review, shall we?

Throughout this whole thread, you are the one who's harped on home-schooling to the practical exclusion of everything else. Not the insane decision of the school to indulge this '6-year-old transgender' foolishness, or the implicit reality that the parent(s) are indulging and feeding this idea.

Instead, you draw upon past experiences as justification for your attitude. Understandable; if you got roaches in your food the first few times you went to an Olive Garden, you'd never want go to another one again, regardless of the performance between franchises. So I point out that your sample size is too small and too skewed to make a statistically valid conclusion.

Your response? Ad hominem. Quoting a profile unused for nearly a decade to harp on a childhood hobby. Equating me with Adam Gadahn, even though our circumstances and teaching methodologies were so far removed from each other that he might as well be on another planet, 'but you both home-schooled so you MUST be similar'! Etcetera.

The most annoying part is that you're clearly an intelligent person. You have a clear grasp on the importance of parental involvement, and how children are far more likely to succeed - regardless of schooling choice - when parents are more involved.

As far as the percentages go, the growing home-school crowd (as of this point in America) is showing a far greater rate of parental involvement overall compared to the public or private school crowd, judging by the educational outcomes. Not that that stops those in the educational establishment and their media hounds from gleefully harping on stereotypes whenever possible, latching onto any examples they can to smear the entire movement (like you've been doing). They wouldn't do that to the hordes of increasingly feral children prowling the halls of many public schools today, because a growing home-school movement represents one thing above all else: less control by the state over the next generation.

But all I hear from you is 'well whatever FATASS I'm gonna keep calling you FATASS because you played games as a kid and you're probably a dumb-Neanderthal-terrorist-in-the-making who's still gonna be a FATASS you FATASS have I mentioned that you're a probably a FATASS yet'? Like a high school jock who never grew up and and never realized that his shtick is banal. Bland. Cliche.

So I'll just call you Biff Tannen.
