I have considered the same thing. Meds did not help, just so you know. My schedule is tough, so it would take a lot of sacrifice, but he isn't learning anything in school. I am the nazi mom, so he would be playing catch up for a while. Homeschooling seems to be the only viable alternative.

Well, momincombatboots, the task seems daunting, but a treasure is worth the commitment.
Keep in mind that just because families in our society generally require their children to leave the home shortly after high school doesn't mean it's what's desirable. Our philosophy is our child will leave the home when he/she is fully prepared to tackle the responsibilities, challenges, and freedom an adult life has to offer. Unless, of course, our children choose to leave shortly after turning 18 by their own volition.
You have time to educate your child, regardless of the social norms.
