I have praise to any parent who is doing homeschooling because it's not easy.
00:00:06
Um I started when my daughter was a sophomore in high school just for one semester and I was like okay I can't do
00:00:11
this anymore. But um I guess as far as like what I think of homeschool and how it's relevant to our topic, I feel like
00:00:21
and I could be wrong um that homeschool is done I would say probably the majority of the kids are from some
00:00:28
Christian background. That would be my assumption. And I would also say that having grown up Catholic Christian uh we
00:00:36
also have the most challenging time talking about sex. So, I would think that these kids uh are left even more in
00:00:46
the dark about sex than your average kid who's already in the dark. So, it's like
00:00:52
double dark. Yes, I I would definitely agree with
