5. I bet she was homeschooled.

I hear the strangest things from homeschooled people sometimes. Some are really sharp and homeschooled with other kids where the families pooled resources to hire an instructor, they usually know better than to even think stuff like that. But I knew a family who did christian home school, and if you read some of the textbooks , you can see that they are not always quite correct and they lack sexual education and reproductive health education.

I wonder if she is a quiverfull too.
