but when I am faced with it, I still feel that I have not learned yet how not to be offended. But it is my desire to not
be offended, say thank you for your concern, and be confident about our family's choice to hs.
I was talking with a family member today and she asked "Are you planning to homeschool through 12th grade?"
I said "yes why" she said well my charter school is opening a highschool ect. and they are haveing an open house
to the public annoucing the highschool and promoting the charter school ect. if you are interested in coming
just in case you might want to check it out. So me being on the offence which I am not proud of but let my flesh get in my way
![Embarassed :oops:](./images/smilies/icon_redface.gif)
if you come over and I will promote homeschooling to you. I know I know I should have just said thank you I will keep in mind,
but i did'nt
![Embarassed :oops:](./images/smilies/icon_redface.gif)
So then she having a college education which I do not said, "oh I don't think I could be smart enough
to homeschool" So then I say "well if your not(smart enough) with a college education then you must think I'm not", she just laughed you know the fake
oh silly you ahahahaha. I know I just walked right through that door, and brought this on myself
![Embarassed :oops:](./images/smilies/icon_redface.gif)
in hs. I would'nt change it for anything so I know I am confidant about the choice, I just find myself getting offended quickly
in this area. Does it get easier to not get offended? I try not to but I just go there everytime I am questiond
![Embarassed :oops:](./images/smilies/icon_redface.gif)
Beleive me I am very dissapointed in myself that I wasn't more mature about how I handled the conversation. (I have repented)
and I always think next time I will do better but I always tend to lash out. So just wodering if any of you out there that has had expeirence in this area how you
delt with it to have more control over your lips and a better attitude in your heart.
