So I'm 14 (Io m the oldest kid in the family) and I have a brother and two sisters and have been homeschooled by our mom our hole life but this year our mom wants all of us to go to public school because my brother and our youngest sister argue a lot and it stresses my mom out to much but she says that if one of us does public school then all of us have to go to public school. I really dono t want to go to public school because I dono t want to get in to all the stupid stuff people do there. I also dono t want to go because I am apart of a homeschool robotics group that I would have to leave. So if you are in highschool and are in publicschool/homeschool or been in both please tell me which is better.

rock1234... you have no idea what you have unchained. there is a veritable war going on in the thread you started.
my advice: since you have built up a life in your homeschooled situation, I advise you not to leave it. it would be a miserable time for you, and you'll regret it all your life.
since your siblings are the problem, let your mum send them to a public school. you should stay homeschooled. If your mum does not want to teach you (which I might understand, given the effort required), ask her to arrange a distance-learning package for you. there are plenty of these available, most costing only a few hundred euros (same in dollars, just a bit more) for a small range of subjects (math, biology, etc.), and giving you a tutor for each into the bargain.
this is better than going to public school. for her too, since she won't have to take you there (assuming you can't use public transport to get there).
if she refuses, tell me her arguments, and I will match them word for word, and then a bit.
contact me for further advice. I want to prevent you from making the same mistakes I made.
if you don't ahve a tutor, distance teacher or they can't explain something, I recommmend KhanAcademy, this is a tutorial website with tutorials on just about any beta subject (math&science) , and a number of alpha ones (language, history, etc.). the tutorials are almost all made by one man, but he explains it so well that he takes 1 video of 15 min. to explain (and give examples) what a teacher would do in 2 lessons, with a lot of homework.
it is also possible to practise certain things, though this is currently limited to math. but this is the website that got me through my years of public school, with good grades.
