I'm watching an old show from 2005 when the Dilley sextuplets turned 12. I find it so strange she (Becki, mom) decided to home school them all after finding out only one of them was being teased in school. They were all on the honor roll almost every semester in their regular school, and most of them wanted to stay in school.

I see they get to go to public high school, tho.

I know this is old stuff, but I found it interesting.

I find it strange that she'd homeschool just for teasing anyways. You'd think with that many siblings who could back you up, that the teasing would not be relentless. Plus it does not teach the child how to deal bullies. In real life, you need to know how to deal with some people who might be mean to ya.

Naja after the first year or two of homeschooling - can't remember which - the kids were given the choice of homeschooling or public school.

The Gosslein's were on GMA today. Here is Kate's meatloaf recipe.

Kate's Meatloaf

makes 10 slices

Ingredients

2 pounds organic ground beef
2-3 eggs
Finely chopped (I use food processor on pulse) celery, onion, green pepper, carrots- about 3/4-1 cup of each.
About 1½-2 cups of breadcrumbs- Italian seasoned if on hand. Otherwise, plain works too. May need more breadcrumbs depending on the consistency of the meatloaf.
About 3/4 cup shredded or grated Parmesan cheese (whichever's on hand).
About ¼ to ½ cup ketchup.
about 2 t Italian seasoning
about 1 t garlic salt

cook about 1 hour or till not pink in the middle.

I really do enjoy this family, but, I must admit to be a little worried about the twins.
It is no secret, that they have some attitude. I've always thought, for 8 yr old girls, they cry so much. Especially, when they do not get their way. Maddie, moreso than Cara on the show. Well, today on GMA, Cara was an absolute brat. She refused to smile, sit w/ good posture or speak. Did anyone else see this? Just wondering what you all thought.
The two oldest are just teaching this bratty behaviour to the tups. This is not good and it is going to get worse. Seems like they have such a chip on their shoulder.
