homeschoolers finding employment
Posted: Mon Nov 06, 2006 5:10 pm
Hi there,
My husband and I are planning to homeschool our daughter (who's only 2 right now). My fathers concern is how she would find work without a highschool diploma (he's assuming she wouldn't have a college degree at this point, i.e. going for a summer job or something). I understand his concern. Many homeschoolers don't like to get the GED for fear that their prospective employer might think that they dropped out of high school. Do any of you have any good info, statistics, links, etc... that would help me to persuade my father that homeschoolers can get employment opportunities just as easily as the rest of us? Thanks!
