undecided 2014, your rant is uncalled for. Have you read the whole thread? No one is denigrating home schooling or questioning the legitimacy of a valid home schooling experience. However, it appears that Brielle was an autodidact, but was not actually home schooled in the normal understanding of the term–i.e., fulfilling her state’s requirements for curriculum, oversight, grading etc. No parent or guardian made her transcript–she made it up herself; it is a fiction, a fraud. Getting a GED would be a relatively painless way to legitimize her status for purposes of continuing her education.</p>
