Initial reports I heard on Fox yesterday were identifying this kid as “homeschooled”.
It is common for parents to call ‘homeschooling’ what they do with a troubled child/expelled child when they’ve had it up to their gills will problems with the child and simply take him/her out of school. That is not home schooling.
This was an identified, troubled kid who should have been in a facility of some kind.
Happened a county over from where my daughter lives. The little boy, Jacob Hall, was shot in the leg, tearing through his femoral artery. He coded twice and the doctors have said they have done what they can and just have to wait and that he is in God’s hands now.
