[quote=Anonymous]Welllll, my friend is 32 so this was 14 years ago. She was raised by a paranoid schitzophernic. Her life story is INSANE and she never got a formal education. Her mom homeschooled her. Her mom's paranoia was around electricity and microwave waves so school was a dangerous place according to her mom. Granted my friend is brilliant, but all her college essays and all her communication with the schools she applied to revolved around her lack of education due to her mentally ill mother. She ended up getting in a ton of schools, including Harvard, through she did not attand Harvard. She is now an amazing writer. Her entire education was based around reading books and believe it our not, it paid off well, no TV, no movies, no screens in her home whatsoever-just books from the public library. The electricity was very limited and there were periods where there was no electricity for months on end.[/quote]
