it isn't as crazy as it sounds. The colleges here offer an abundance of remedial level courses (because the public schools are ineffective) beginning with elementary level math and english. I will teach them until they are old enough to handle sitting in their seats for 2 hrs and keeping pace with the class. The courses are not demanding (my husband and I are in school now as well, and can compare these courses to others we've taken in other states).
Where I'm from, it's not uncommon for kids to start picking up classes at 14 or 15. We know a few families here who are starting their kids in a few courses at 12-14, and one family graduated their 2 oldest at 14 and 15 so that they could start full time college courses.

I'm against starting college so early. I want them to have their childhoods now while they are kids. Each to their own though.
