I'm 21 and I've had chins for 9 years now. Times flies when you've got a hoard of monsters to take care of!

I feel the same way with my human kids...(3 y/o girl & 6 y/o boy)

[ErinsChins]

Im 16 I've had chins for 4 years been breeding for almost 2.

Without school and all that crap weighing me down I have time to do what I loveeee!

 

[Mt. Zion Chins]

without school, you wouldn't have the education to earn the money to do all the things you love

I'm home schooled, I'm not an idiot I'm also going to go to college, but public school was a waste of 7 hours. I learned in one year what I could have learned in one hour. I am required to do 4 hours of school a day, 20 hours a week. I usually do 6-8 hours a day to free up the rest of the week.

Sorry if my post sounded ignorant, it wasn't supposed to be. I love learning, but am very angry with the way public schooling is done around here. Anyway, don't get me wrong, I don't think school is useless, I realize that is how it sounded.

I am going to turn 22 on the 20th and i have had chins for 4 years.

never said you were an idiot. I agree about some public schools - especially in TN. I have a granddaughter who goes to public school in TN. They aren't very good. She lives in Erin, TN - Glad to hear you love learning. By the way, WELCOME to CNH

Thanks for the welcome, sorry if I seemed sort of spacy last night, sooo tired I had no clue there was an Erin, TN. All of the public schools within a 60 mile radius around here are just--unruly.

Erin is about a 1 1/2 hours (driving distance) northwest of Nashville

[ratcuddler]

I am 21 and holding, and I will get my first chin(s) on Sunday. They just happen to be a quad too. I have been doing research all of a month I believe. *seems so much longer*
