Thanks for the clarification. I seem to recall good news about Florida in the foggy recesses of my brain.

For along time, private Christian schools were feeling $$$ threatened by homeschooling. Then they figured out how to do homeschool support actitivities. No need for bricks and teachers, families would provide that. :-)

We got our Supreme Court rulings in Michigan in '93, I think. An attempt to 'simplify' the law was passed and then majorly revised in '96. Smooth sailing since then.

Now I'm an old lady in NC. lol This is all, blessedly, ancient history. The news stories about public schools now are full of physical and sexual violence like we never fathomed in the 80's. I'm glad my kids are grown. I'm praying for courage to start the whole thing over with grandchildren.

Thanks for being a pioneer. I started homeschooling in 1994. My oldest in 11th grade right now, dual-enrolled at the local community college. My youngest is a kindergartener. We owe a debt of gratitude for our freedom to home educate and for the wealth of opportunities available to home educators to the people who went before us.
