I dont think so, given that weve heard his grades were slipping. Besides which. Let me tell you. I homeschool my children, so I pay attention, and if there is any nasty news worth reporting about a family, and the media determines that they can mention and link negative unpleasant stories to homeschooling, they will not leave it out, given the opportunity. So if he was homeschooled, it would probably follow his name in every article. I know homeschooling has not become mainstream yet, but you dont hear about school in the news articles about all the awfulness that goes on in the world, the journalists dont go out of their way to say, John Doe, serial killer, attended school K through 12." But boy they are PDQ to tell you when a criminal has been homeschooling or is homeschooled. (The Balloon boy case comes to mind) If J was homeschooled, wed know it.
I wouldnt put too much stock into the exact time frame these gym friends/acquaintances say Terri was complaining. I chat with people at my gym. I see the same people week after week because they take the same classes I take. In most cases, I do not even introduce myself or know their names. If I was asked to recall when the grey haired ladys grand baby was born, or when the woman with the flowered jogging jackets daughter was due home from college, I doubt very much I could tell you precisely when those conversations happened. I could tell you, with certainty, Oh yes, she complained about her remodling project. She said it was taking a lot longer than the contracter promised. but Id have to say, vaguely, It was before the weather warmed up because Aquafitness was still being held in the indoor pool. But, I would NOT be able to pin it down. I dont think theres any point in getting too hung up on the time frame the gym friends estimated. Its probably just a guess, and very likely wrong.
Another, different possibility is that Terri was in fact complaining to these acquaintences at the time they say she was. If that is the case, then she was deliberately manipulating them because it was part of laying the ground work for her plan to get away with disappearing Kyron. Not sure how this lie fits in, but, its no different than the other lie I am convinced she told regarding the doctor appointment on June 4th or June 11th. I believe she was intentionally vague, intentionally misleading, or possibly just downright dishonest about when that appointment was. She said things about the doctor appointment in order to keep the teacher from being worried when Kyron didnt report back to class. She didnt want his absence to send up any red flags.
Oh, and just to make Js life even more unstable inconsistent and unpredictable, lets not forget that Dad isnt even a bio-dad, but an adopted dad. Im not sure weve ever heard who Js bio-dad is. Tarver adopted him while he & Terri were married, and then when they split up, she had the gall to go after him for child support. That particular move has always rankled my fur.
Just wanted to clear up. I havent seen the commercial, but it is based on an ANCIENT Hindu fable. The story has been around for a long long time. I just want to give credit where credit is due. not trying to be snarky.
