I home schooled my daughter once she became 12. By 16, she had 1600 on her SAT, and spent her”extra” year at the Sorbonne. At 17, she matriculated to Stanford, and graduated Magna at 21.

Now VP of Microsoft Asia at 30. Just married a heart surgeon
I did good : ) Pregnant too! Grandaddy SJB! Oh, she retired from MS.

I had a consulting career out of my house but homeschooled two sons with their Dad, Harvard tutors, and me. The oldest completed high school and got a high SAT score in the tenth grade. He was ready for college but he wanted to play lacross and girls at the high school so he did that. The youngest followed in his footsteps. Both boys wracked up a lot of advancement placement college credits while at high school. They ran a couple of businesses with me and packed away a lot of money for college. Then they went off to college one semester ahead. We had a blast together and grew very close. They are well rounded independent guys. One is getting his PhD in science and the younger guy just graduated with a business degree.
