A Speech About Gabriel's Assassination
We are here today to mourn the unfortunate passing of our beloved beloved son, brother, nephew and uncle Gabriel Ross who died fighting a terrorist's top assassin on a mission for the FBI. And although they can’t verify anything we know he was an honorable agent/assassin. Gabriel’s date of death was December 1st, 2017.

I would like to share what Gabriel’s childhood was like. Gabriel was homeschooled from kindergarten to the eighth grade. I remember Gabriel talking about those years because he always talked about how boring it was to be homeschooled. He said that he also didn’t like it because it deprived him of social interaction and made it that much harder to socialize when he was put in public school. When he was put in school he always talked about how great it was to finally be able to make friends and that it helped him to have a better outlook on life.

He loved to act and to pretend to be something else. His least favorite subject was math because it was boring, frankly he sucked at it, and it was just plain stupid as far as he was concerned.

Three goals Gabriel did not attain before his morbid assassination were these. Gabriel’s number one goal was to major in Clinical Psychology in college by having a impressive GPA and by taking high school psychology classes, or at least that’s what he said. Gabriel’s second goal was to become more social and more comfortable in social situations, for example I always remember him being terrified when he had to do any sort of public speaking. His third goal was to grow taller than his dad, which he did not before he died.

In closing Gabriel will be remembered as a good guy with a very sarcastic sense of humor who cared very much about those close to him and really liked to talk in a british accent. He was always there when we needed him and I think we can all agree he was a amazing

    To begin, children who are home schooled have no social aspect. Being at school is how you learn to socialize. As the textbook say, “Socialization is the process by which people learn characteristics of their group's norms, values, attitudes, and behaviors”(Socialization page 1). Going to school is how we learn these basic values of socialization. Being home schooled doesn’t prepare children for college or the work force. If students are not enrolled in school, they don’t have the opportunity to be involved. An important aspect of school is being an involved and well-rounded student. If you are home schooled, you have no opportunity to join school sport teams or clubs. Being a student at school structures…
