@superbearwars: I was too strange to enter social circles even at kindergarten and too shy to force my way in. In my first preschool, I would get punished and verbally attacked for not being social enough and not smiling enough. The thing was? Most of the time I was smiling, there's just this weird thing with my mouth where I look frowny most of the time, as in I have to use almost every muscle at near max power to get anything visible. Another issue with 'looking' happy is I have photophobia, basically all light hurts my eyes and there's no escape from constant suffering. Growing up in an age where if you not normal the teachers would attack you to 'help' you and the kids attacked you for being weird, I think that being overprotective is a huge improvement.
@Sass Pegasus: You mean the part that says the active will be rewarded?

@superbearwars: Eh, better too careful than not careful enough. Wanna hear why I think that? o-o

@RainbowPanda: Maybe there are guides on the internet, its something psychologists would want to look at.
@superbearwars: It's okay, I can understand standing up if you think someone's attacking a friend of yours.
@Boss Rimi: Good luck~
@RainbowPanda: You also socialize through the internet. It doesn't show how to read faces or body language but... kids can learn a lot about that way before 5th grade anyway.
@superbearwars: ...I don't think I said that? I never claimed to be well socialized.

@RainbowPanda: It's still better than not at all.
@RainbowPanda: Sorry^^; I can't really take back what I said either... x_x I wish I could... Maybe you won't end up that way? You used to go to a normal school after all.
@Boss Rimi: Well it depends if the waters running too hard or if its temperature, it could be either.
@RainbowPanda: Also, the worst people at being naive I've ever met were all homeschooled. It wont prepare people for the biggest tricksters out there ready to trick you and sack you in a bag of lies.

@Boss Rimi: If it burns than start the water off cooler.
@RainbowPanda: Does she realize brick and mortar schools teach people about socializing in ways home schools can't?

@Boss Rimi: Why are you scared to shower?

@Shark: Yes it is XD
