Simple concept - unless he has pushed the kid out of his vagina, or is his other parent/father, he has no say in it. Period.

I'm sure your friend probably wants the best for you, but in this case he needs to support you and not try to control you. I think home schooling offers an even better quality education than you would get in most schools today. You could really make sure your son understands what you're teaching him and also, no propaganda that is slipped in surreptitiously with the subject matter. I'm really concerned with what is being taught in public schools today. A lot of public education today seems more like indoctrination into a certain way of thinking and if I was a mother I wouldn't want my child's head filled with the propaganda.

My husband is a Libra with Scorpio Moon, Mercury and Venus. You would think he was a malleable kind of person if you met him, but not so. He will do what he wants to do and you're either with him or against him. I've always thought he has the right to make his own decisions, good or bad. I might express my opinion one way or the other, but whatever he does he has to live with and its okay with me. I'm a Sagittarius, so I'm open minded but I have a Scorpio Moon too, so I get where he's at.

I also have a good lady friend with a Sun/Pluto conjunction. She is tough as nails and steadfast in what she wants to do. I worked with her for 20 years as part of a management team and through thick and thin she was always the last woman standing.
Most people like to follow the norm and anything outside of that is outside their comfort level. If you home school for awhile, see how it works out for you and your son. I have two cousins that were home schooled for a few years and then they went on to college and did just fine.

I didn’t mean to abandon my own thread. I just needed to take a breathe from my own feelings about the whole thing. Thank you all for your encouragement.

I really don’t know what happened because I really felt a shift in his energy towards me. I know that I did nothing to deserve his sudden shittyness. The more I think about (natal Mercury in Scorpio and of course that current transit as well) it the more I see that it was a passive aggressive lashing out. He was throwing a fit in a way (other details point to this too that I don’t want to insert here). 

He made a speech a couple nights ago and I didn’t make myself go. I’m really not in a place where I’m willing to take on someone elses emotional burden (I’m not talking about helping someone through a hard time, that’s different). I’ve done that soooo much in the past to my own detriment. I can not afford it anymore.
