need advice from parents of teen homeschoolers
Posted: Thu Mar 07, 2013 12:05 pm
My son is very young, only 7 months, but I am already thinking about his education. Long before I had kids I was very interested in homeschooling. My fiance is a bit on the fence.
When he was in school he thrived on the social interactions. He is very nervous that our son will be teased and wont have the fun experiences that he had as a teen.
I know better than this. I know that he will have friends and that we will be very involved in the community. I cannot promise that he will attend a prom but I know that he can have a wonderful childhood full of great memories.
can anyone with a teen who is homeschooled give me some good examples of the experiences your child has as a homeschooler? My fiance is not against the idea but he has never been one to go against the grain and he is very nervous that everyone we know will be against this and that it will damage our child.
