Here are my adds to the list:
You Know You’re a Homeschooler When
… you take a trip to the grocery store and your child keeps track of your spending and compares prices using unit pricing.
… the Termite person comes to inspect the traps and the kids follow her around asking questions.
… the librarian knows you and your children by name.
… a trip to the vet is a science field trip.
…baking Christmas cookies for relatives counts as math, science, history and geography.
…you have a box full of empty jars, soda bottles, egg cartons, toilet paper tubes, Styrofoam containers, and other ‘trash’ stored in the garage
…your children deliberately watch the History Channel, Discovery Channel, A&E, and PBS.
…you listen to books on tape in the car while running errands.
…all your school work in homework!
