Hey..Well We live in Sunny FLORIDA!!! B-)
We have been home-schooling about 4 yrs....I kinda always knew i would but when my dd was 4 she begged me to let her go to "public" school..so out of guilt i signed her up...
On her 1 st day i stayed with her..I wanted to make sure i liked the environment ect...At the end of the day i was so worried..how was i going to tell her she was not going back (DID NOT like the school or teachers) So i braced myself when i asked her ,
How did you like it??? She was like mommy i dont want to go back...can we find another school?..I was soooo relived that she too didnt like it..So i said we will do school at home...
She is 8 now and she LOVES it!....
My only concern going in was my kids making friends,but its pretty easy to do that...between parks,home-school groups.,sports,church ect...that imo is the only thing that i could see a child would miss from a public school..but i mean in reality kids today hardly get to socialise...besides lunch and p.e. other then that their stuck in a desk being told to stop talking
we also have a son 3 who is home-schooling now aswell
Another thing that has made a difference with our kids loving being home-schooled is we dont do a book curriculum..we use a online program Time4Learning which makes it feel more like a game or tv show..So that has made school for both of my kids very enjoyable
