I was home schooled by the best. From what I read about what is happening in today's public schools I wouldn't want to have attended.
I have two close girlfriends who home school their kids. I’ve known those kids since BIRTH and they are super-smart, POLITE, well-mannered, and they LISTEN and BEHAVE...aside from the usual meltdowns little kids have and the surliness ALL teens develop for a while.
Those kids are a JOY to be around. The oldest of the two families is going to a Catholic Junior High School this year and she is YEARS ahead of her peers.
So proud and happy for my friends. It can be done!
