Same here
Same but get into a co-op…sooo good

why??? please i want an answer to why your homeschooled
@@ragingcomedy1835 because you can get out of school without having to lose out on any of your classes…I’m finding that out now that I am in high school and trying to still get in my important clases
My respect for her 📈📈📈
But why
because she doesn’t try to use people and doesn’t care about things like popularity
@@vidmarkovinovic8806 And why do you have an issue with that?
@@vidmarkovinovic8806 she doesn’t do OF lmaoo she’s Christian too 😂
@@vidmarkovinovic8806 she doesn't (I don't think) and even if she did, so what? Yeah OF isnt any thing I would do but it's her life, she's getting money from it. And there isn't particularly anything wrong with it. Edit: there is a lot wrong with it, Idk what went through my head 😭
I’m homeschooled and I LOVE talking to ppl but I’m also freaking out and overthinking the situation at the same time :)
so real
Absolutely

Bro between church activities, homeschool events, music lessons, neighborhood kids and a bunch of siblings and cousins, my homeschooled butt was ready for some alone time 😂
Sameeee
Bro same lol
Good job going outside and not staying in all day, you are doing a certain aspect of homeschool correctly 😊
Bro SAME😂
Don't forget Co-ops and sports and siblings on top of all of it :I lol
When I was homeschooling, I was part of a bunch of weekly activities. Drama class, music class, orchestra, park play days, and other things I tagged along to that my brothers did. I had a good dose of social.
everyone thinks its like this isolated thing
@@armored4031 it is for alot of people
@@October-TE are you homschooled
@@October-TE that’s the parents fault not homeschooling
@@armored4031 yes
I’m homeschooled and ima be honest. I have more of a social life than most public schoolers
Yup some brother
Yea I got to do more socializing then any of my public school friends.
@@caleblewis1445 same
Exactly! My children are rarely home.
Wish I was homeschooled
“Awww thank you” was so sweet the way we said it ❤️❤️
This is so interesting- my homeschooled kids do a ton of groups, playdates, drama classes etc. Parents should make the effort to ensure their kid has all the opportunities they want when it comes to socialising.
Why? Getting together with others often is distracting, can open your children up to bad experiences and the possibility of good, of getting sick, and of teaching them to care too much what people think like other kids. Everyone homeschools for different reasons but to me I love seeing that my kids are growing into people that do not care about many of the things I cared about and certain things don't even come into their mind that are insecurities of mine. As they get older and their personalities and characters are developed more I can definitely understand if they want to be around people making that happen but if not, then okay. Many people like to be alone, I was not homeschooled and I like to be alone and many school children are anti-social.
@@ASmith-jn7kf So if your kid is anti social the answer is to lean into it and not make them be social at the cost of their education? Seems like nurturing to me. How will they ever learn anything or grow with this avoidant attitude? genuinely asking.
Ooo yes, let them socialize and explore their hobbies even as little kids. I think having those and continuing to show interest in trying new things in high school has encouraged me to do explore and try new things in college and as an adult.
@@ASmith-jn7kf Many people like to be alone because of their phones and tiktok, not because it's a natural thing. I believe you're worsening the problem by doing that.
@@ASmith-jn7kfI understand this reasoning and that this is what you feel is best for your kids, but this is a fundamentally flawed way of thinking and will lead to anti-social adults afraid of confrontation and the fear of what others think will hit them WORSE.
Humans are a fundamentally social species. The parts that make life worth living are also primarily social things, like family, friends, romantic partners and SHARING our passions with others.
Not allowing children the space or time to socialize might seem good here in the now, but children are not going to live at home their whole lives. Eventually, they’ll need to work and move out. At that point, nearly everybody around them has decades of experience socializing, whereas these children do not have the necessary skills to cope with the real world. They become outcasts, struggle with severe social anxiety and struggle to make friends or understand other people’s boundaries.
Nobody wants to see their kid get sick, care about what others think or undergo other bad experiences, but these are unfortunately fundamental parts of the human experience we all need to undergo at some point or another in order to develop into well adjusted adults. Trying to block that might seem like a kind thing to do, but it is quite the opposite.
"Awwwww, thank you" he's always so grateful for her compliments❤❤! Aww man. He'll always acknowledge it
She speaking facts though 🤌🏼
I just became home educated recently and it was the best decision I have ever made the school System sucks
RIGHT??!!!
yeah in general i love my homeschooled life, i went through all of school and hated every minute, but i do need to put myself out there/come out of isolation because i'm not getting enough social interaction 🥲
I’m homeschooled and unless you put yourself out there you won’t have much social interaction I’m on a homeschooled basketball team and it has really helped me come out of my shell and everyone is so nice. Both of my parents found it very important that me and my siblings have a very social life they wanted us not to be afraid to talk to strangers or speak up for ourselves and they have done great at that none of us are afraid to say anything
Weirdo
I was homeschooled my entire life, but I was very social. This isn’t what homeschooling is for everyone.
Yeah for sure it’s different for everyone
Yeah, I would guess it's different for everyone. I have never been homeschooled, but I litterly don't socialize a lot. It's just tiring to socialize.
Absolutely agree. We were homeschooled and were super social and always doing things with different people, whether it was the sports team we were a part of, different clubs or groups we did, or just the neighborhood kids we'd hangout with.
I swear homeschooled kids r so innocent
Yeah, but there are non homeschooled kids who are innocent to
..yeah.. until he turns 10 and gets unrestricted internet access 💀
not unless they find ✨wattpad✨
@@thegirlwhodidlikemusicals SAME istg me and my best friend literally FaceTime and make dirty jokes the whole time 😭
not really. i go to public school but my friend is homeschooled (keep in mind shes 14) and goes to parties with 18-20 year olds and literally gets drunk, vapes, AND lost her v card at 12. shes been homeschooled her entire life, her parents homeschooled her for the sole reason to shelter her so idk where they went wrong. i dont hang out with her as much anymore though bc my parents said shes a bad influence so 😃
She’s one large reason for homeschooling and against public schools.
Who is she?
@@erinropes3659Brooke Monk
@@erinropes3659brooke monk, she a youtuber and tiktoker
why?
As a homeschooled kid I am both excited to socialize and am physically incapable of socializing
Same. I like being around people but im too shy to actually talk to them lol 😂💀
Home schooling common?
That is me.
Same but i went to public school 😂😂
For real, this is me LOL
It’s so true tho, being homeschooled literally talk to no one but don’t care who talks to them as long as they do
as a homeschooler, i never really learned how to talk to people, and the stress im caused from trying to have a conversation, keeps me from wanting to talk to anyone.. ever.
This, I truly can't relate with her bc my social anxiety probably exists bc I'm homeschooled
There are plenty of people with social anxiety BECAUSE of schooling, too. My dad was extremely social in school, but now he's reclusive. Being homeschooled, I actually get a lot of time to think about decent behaviour, kind things, and what to say. I read my Bible and get to prepare and perfect the next interaction before it even happens, so that everyone walks away from it happy. Staying calm and being honest are very important. Everyone can detect honesty and it is very admirable, it can relax a conversation immediately.
I hope you can enjoy your social interactions soon, too. 🙂👍
@TiddlyBlinx
you’re totally right, and i agree with everything you said. in many ways, homeschooling has been a blessing to me. but im also certain it’s the reason why i struggle to socialize so much. however, when it comes to schooling (and most things in life), there is no perfect, fail-proof option.
thank you for your thoughtful response
Me just pressing like button and it turning to 2.1k I was like « I’m the chosen one » 😮
Happens to me sometimes lol
I liked from 6.5K to 6.6K after reading your comment 😂
Hahaha amazing
WOW
We homeschool and I have a hard time keeping up with my kids social calendar. I went to public school and I felt alone and socially awkward until I graduated and fully entered the world. I guess everyone is different.
As someone who was homeschooled I didn’t like the fact I couldn’t really have any social interactions with other people until I started doing both online at home and then going to school for my other classes Spanish, sports med, my football and track. But I’ll tell you what I plan on homeschooling my kids in the future because I’ve learnt soooo much more doing it online than actual school, history they don’t teach you, science, the stock market, financial advise etc.
As a home school kid i think it’s fun but i had no social life but now i do theatre so i have so friends 😊
I was home schooled, and I wasn't allowed to talk to anyone other than my family. I now can't talk to anyone, and my social anxiety ruins my life. Home schooling was the worst thing ever.
Bro, my homeschooling life is a dream come true. I don't have to talk to a single person outside of my family; it's great!
Edit: y'all keep saying "is this sarcasm?" and "get a life, you'll grow out of that phase." No, this isn't sarcasm, and no, I won't grow out of that phase. I'm introverted, I hate making new friends, and frankly most people in my life are not worth talking to. Homie in the replies put it well: "Just because I don't like interacting with people very much doesn't mean I'm not *good* at interacting with people when I need to."
Till you cannot interact with the world in person.
Bro 💀
Bro
good luck having a full conversation with someone in public without your family around
You gonna face some real problems in adult life
I was homeschooled she’s speaking FACTS
she been on the internet for years and this is the first time i’ve ever heard her speak
I was homeschooled and it’s crazy you either become an introvert or a extrovert. Me personally an introvert and I could care less if we talked but these extroverts be giving us homeschoolers a bad rep ong
LITERALLY FACTS!!! im very introverted and i hate having to interact with people bc i get so self-conscious and i overthink everything. i feel like most everyone here are extraverts.
I'm homeschooled and I love it:)
If your homeschooled and don’t get involved with anything, yes you will not see anyone 😂 but I’m busy all the time being homeschooled i have so much free time and i fill it with the things i like to do.
It depends on your location and resources.
I’m homeschooled and she is ABSOLUTELY correct
I love to see her personality more through how she’s talking and she’s such a excited, fast talker and it makes me so humbled and I love her more.❤
"he's very attractive person"
"Aiw thank you"
I love them 😭💗
They are both so gorgeous
Im homeschooled and what she says about not talking to people much is true, the only things i fo is go to church, occasionally shopping, and playing for my football (soccer) team.
I was homeschooled but I didn’t want to talk to people I’m just so shy😭
how can someone be so extroverted if they are homeschooled
extroverted means that you gain energy by being with people. it has nothing to do with being homeschooled, plus we don't know if she is gaining energy by being with them so yeah ahah
Every homeschooled person I've ever met has been a mega introvert or just so socially awkward they are forced to be an introvert cause they can't converse in a meaningful way lol. But once you get them talking they refuse to stop.
As someone who switched from private school to homeschool, homeschoolers are the most extroverted people ever
Extroversion is a personality trait, you can be extroverted, but not well socialized and vice versa - a well socialized introvert. Homeschooling doesn't mean you can't socialize with others afterwards
@@fastec5 that has nothing to do with homeschooling and everything with being insecure about talking. This often happens when people do nothing except play video games in their off time instead of hitting the gym or doing things that actually are real that they enjoy. Saying this as someone who played video games most of his teenage years in his time off. But when I hit the gym regularly and orientated myself in life, I went from quiet dude to socially completely secure and capable.
As a homeschooler, this doesn't have to be true. You are responsible for your social life now, you are not automatically put in a class of 25. So it's entirely up to homeschoolers how active they are socially.
Yeah. Like I go to a public school but don't really socialize. Only we a couple of friends and family.
Not always true. When I was homeschooled, both of my parents worked, so there wasn’t any time for extracurriculars or visits to the park to make friends. It would sometimes be weeks between seeing people outside of my immediate family, much less peers.
To be fair, she is clearly an extrovert 😂 I am introverted, and would have preferred to be homeschooled through high school. I probably would have finished early out of my own initiative and been able to start working and exploring real life earlier, instead of being stuck in classrooms with weird people for a decade of my life. Also, there are plenty of homeschooling programs that allow for more peer interaction on a weekly basis than you would get doing everything with a parent at home. It’s not black and white, and every kid is different.
Great video. Glad I found your channel it makes me long for days past.
I got friends that are homeschooled and those guys are the bestest friends I’ve ever had, she is awesome
Im also homeschooled an this is indeed facts 💯
When you weren't homeschooled but still didn't make any friends... now that's something to complain about
I was homeschooled too! My weekly schedule and my siblings schedules so full of people! In high school, my routine was:
Monday: Co-op classes 9-4, homework in the evenings
Tuesday: Piano lesson, homework, work my after school job at an art museum, pottery lessons
Wednesday: Homeschool theatre club, youth group, volunteering at the library 2-3 hours
Thursday: Speech and debate club, work at art museum
Friday: Nature study group with other homeschool kids, reading group, ultimate frisbee/sports clubs (we played several)
Saturday: hangout with friends or do chores around the house, babysitting jobs
Sunday: Church and Sunday afternoon small group (also had a book club once a month)
I also traveled on the weekends for debate club tournaments! I was a nerd, but I did have a very active social life! 😂 I’d do my assignments in between things but I always felt like I saw a ton of people!
They are so perfect for each other, nothing can get in their way. ❤
I love being homeschooled. Also she’s so right
I’m homeschooled and we A little crazy when we going to the outside world 😂 lmao
Yes we are! I too am homeschooled😂
This video always seems to find me whenever I’m struggling with the big exams. I came across it first before my O levels then my AS exams and now before my A2 exams which start in slightly over 2 months from now and this specific video always reassures me to a level which I cannot describe. Yk that “hey, I actually can do this, I will do this” type of way.
i've been homeschooled for the past 6 months and my GOD do i crave social interaction 😩
what she's saying is so real, i went from trying to avoid conversation, to being the most genuine, personable, friendly and chatty person when presented with the opportunity to talk to someone 💀
The fact they are together now.❤
This is why I’ll always be 50/50 on homeschooling. It’s great for some people, and for others, it’s not so great. I tried homeschooling on myself after I left private school (cause let’s be for real, private school is kind of a scam, and this was after public school too) and oh my god I just couldn’t do it for the life of me, constantly being around my family (besides doing some outside stuff) was NOT good for me.
I’m homeschooled too and I just love her!! She is so fun and sweet! ❤
Oh my gosh she put that in words I never could I’m homeschooled too and she did awesome explaining
Omg, yes, I don’t see that many people, and I get so much anxiety after talking because I talk about my self to much 😂
As a black kid who went to a primarily white school shit was tragic and white people no matter how much we explain it won't understand why beyond the bullying. Yea white kids talking shit and making you feel like less of a person is shit but also as a person who didn't have smart parents i didn't know shit about my culture or how to take care of myself bc my parents never really taught me that stuff and they weren't really actually raising me.
thats painful, but also a very hard lesson, I think you'll know this when youre a parent and maybe homeschool them and teach them
Oh no im white and understand
I’m a sophomore and have been homeschooled for 7 years. She’s right, it’s lonely. But I can talk to anyone and everyone for any amount of time which is a plus.
Love these comments, homeschooled myself and hate the stereotype of doesnt see anybody, stays inside and has no friends. And ive seen so many people talking about all the activities and social clubs they go to and its so true! Homeschooling can be very sociable if you do it correctly
And that is why most of my friends are homeschooled
I definitely did not feel isolated while being homeschooled... I know some do but I never experienced it bc I did a lot of co-ops, music lessons, and a bunch of other stuff.
Bro same tbh there’s probably a lot more that you can do if you’re homeschooled like with school there’s gonna be a lot of clubs a lot of things but what if you just don’t wanna do them with homeschooling it’s not like you’re restricted to one school and me personally if I didn’t like something that I was doing, I would not interact with people as much and I can see that definitely would happen more at school and like when you’re homeschooled you can do whatever it’s not the same at a school
@@InLChrstian yeah it's definitely a while different world than public school lol
It's interesting to see other homeschooler's views. For me, each and every social interaction was special, bc I didn't socialize a lot. So I started overthinking everything and I still have extreme social anxiety.
I’m homeschooled and this is 100% accurate
homeschooled kids r so underrated
we r the best
Y'all are still the same as when you both started just 2 genuine good people and better together I've enjoyed watching y'all grow up on my phone.❤
Back in high school, I had a crush on a co-worker who was a year ahead of me. She was home schooled until grade 12, came to my high school for the final year. By social standards set in my brain, I had made peace that we would just be friends, given how devastatingly beautiful she was(and of course by social standards, not just my own).
I spent a lot of time with her, bike rides, hanging out etc... Let every single cue fly over my head. She was so obviously interested in me, but I had been conditioned to ignore that possibility to the Nth degree. She ended up moving away during college, and to her I guess I was always that oblivious friend she had a crush on. Wild learning experience in retrospect.
I have two friends who were homeschooled and yeah they talk a lot. I fucking love them lol
Relationship goals ❤❤❤

She’s right. I was homeschooled my entire life, and i had no idea why so many actually nice kids wanted to be friends with me, but i realized i really didn’t care if they were popular or not, i just cared if they were nice. I would never get upset if there was a “mean girl” in the friend group, because my emotional maturity was so far beyond my age, i didn’t see them as a higher up just because they were a bully, i honestly just saw them as immature. I’d make SO many nice, honest friends, and i still do now (i’m a homeschooled freshman) also, she’s right on the fact that if i was talking to you, that was because I WANTED TOO. The only downside of homeschool is that i developed EXTREME social anxiety, but thats not everyone.
I’m also a homeschooled freshman, I stopped going to public school by mid sixth grade, only bad thing is sometimes it’s harder to make friends
as an anti social online kid, sometimes I love the fact that the only people I see on a daily basis are my family, and sometimes I get depressed that the only people I talk to are my family members. 😭
Her bf is so lucky
If I had someone who looked really similar to Anna Kendrick, I'd be super lucky too.
Homeschooled kids tend to have very few negative experiences with social interactions so they tend to talk to everyone, no matter their age.
Yes😂😂😂😂❤
I agree with that as a home school kid
This is awesome. I have an almost ten year old daughter comin up homeschooling. She’s awesome.
She's so genuine
I’m homeschooled and for me it’s quite the opposite I’m socialised very often 🥲
Lucky
but where ? the school experience studying and learning with people is best especially as I am an only child
@@cutiroseWhen I was homeschooled, I did (at varied points) sports, dance classes, acapella, community theatre, volunteering, book clubs, youth group, homeschool art meetups, weekly homeschool park days, activities at my local library, my local aquarium/art museum both held classes specifically for homeschoolers, etc. So I saw people constantly.
@@aucoinkirsten Nah I mean for only child homeschool is a bit lonely without any siblings at home. Its good for those with many siblings and cut off ost which can be used for good classes like you had
I did homeschool and for me to gets friends my parents decided for me to go to a church way I could make friends youth group help me get friends
I moved around 6 times throughout my life to 7 or 8 different schools and I kinda feel the same way because it’s exiting to talk to new people.
Great to hear 💯💯
Great couple❤
I don’t care TH-cam. Stop pushing this crap on me

Click on the three dots. On the drop-down menu, click "not interested." It's that simple.
This just shows how successful homeschoolers can be. And yeah, maybe we don’t see people as often, but that doesn’t mean we can’t socialize. We actually love to see people and we cherish friendships and our time together because we don’t see our friends every day.
Very true!!!
I'm graduating this year, and I've been homeschooled since 6th grade. There are so many homeschool communities to join. People think homeschoolers are always shy, they're not. Some have a shy personality, and that can't be changed and that's totally ok. But to say that all homeschoolers are like that is just not true.

Yea I'm homeschooled and it tends to be very lonely. And so i have battled with depression for years
I was homeschooled and talked to people all the time. More so than many of my public school friends. Really just depends on your situation and community
homeschooling doesn’t have to be like this. if you want to make friends you need to put the effort in. same goes for public school. you aren’t going to automatically make friends unless you put yourself out there. i am homeschooled and i have many friends that i have met through different activities. (theater, ballet class, art class, etc.) there was a period of my homeschooled life where i felt very lonely. once i started to put an effort into socializing i made many friends. homeschooling doesn’t have to be isolating. if you’re homeschooled and feel alone i promise you it gets better just try to really put yourself out there. don’t be afraid. ❤
I’m homeschooled too, but my mom made sure that we went to a co-op every Friday and did field trips and stuff like that. I also had my best friends at church, so it wasn’t as lonely as people think.
I'm homeschooled and I see people all the time honestly it is quite nice to have time by myself haha.
I can seriously relate to this XD being home schooled means ur social life is reasonably bad, but luckily im in hte Air Cadets, so i get to talk to people more often
It's crazy how true that is
Brooke has always been the sweetest and most straight forward person i know
Shes a keeper 💯
I'm in 10th grade, and have been homeschooled since 3rd grade. Usually the only time I leave the house is to go to a homeschool co-op on Wednesday, and then church on Sunday. Other than that, its just grocery shopping. So, when I see someone outside of my family, I could literally talk to them for about an hour.
Heyyy! Homeschooler here. One thing I’ll say about being homeschooled is it reallllyyy prepared me well for adult life. Like the ability to just be cool with anyone no matter their age, knowing how to manage myself, understanding my learning style and how I operate, are serving me soooo well. I know a lot of people my age have a hard time adjusting into the life of having to make the effort to make friends instead of just being around them at school and stuff like that but tbh being homeschooled I kinda missed that step. It was always an effort to go out and socialize. Now I’m a huge homebody introvert so I like the excuse to be by myself lolol but adult life feels so normal in that way
I was homeschooled and I went to places for homeschool kids, like a once a week home school school. Iykyk. Also like sports, Netball teams/activities and French and Tennis lessons, so I had plenty of socializing. I had three bestfriends, one girl and two buys who were brothers. I knew them since I was a literal child like 6 months- 3 years old. I also lived in a unit so when the time hit. ALL my friends came home and Id spend all day outside, playing or in someone elses house or they're in my house. Now that I'm in school and living else where... I have three friends, two of which I like and I stay home all day on youtube, safe to say school fucking sucks
I didn’t know she was homeschooled, but I’m homeschooled and live on a farm and this is so true
This is so true! Im not like anti-social or anything because I'm homeschooled, im just not constantly surrounded by kids my age at all times during the week. So im not really being influenced by school kids. But all my freinds at church go to school so i understand what its like. I also go to many social events and Im usually the one to start up conversation.
I'm homeschooled and I can confirm this is 1000000000000% true but I also overthink how much I'm talking and then I'm overthinking what I'm talking about
