I know, I have a friend that does it in New Mexico because the school systems sucks there, she homeschools 4 children all different ages also. I commend her for it. She has to be there because that is where her husbands job sends them. But it isn't that easy for everyone to drop everything and do, not to mention the fact that unfortunately I myself could never homeschool because I don't have the patience or organizational skills. My point is that it isn't for everyone, just like public school isn't for everyone, and private school isn't either. Every child is different. You see something wrong my first reaction is to try and get it fixed, so that no one else is hurt. And yes I do pride myself and so do my children, and my childrens schools want parents there and there is nothing wrong with that.

No, you said it was the "easy" way out. I took umbrage with that statement. I submit it is you who are taking the easy way out. You know how many times I hear "Oh gee golly.........I'm just FAR too disorganized and impatient to do that!"

What that really means is "I don't wanna screw with it. It's far easier to ship my kids to a public school and show up occasionally, convincing myself and others that I'm so incredibly involved in my kids' education."

Spare me.

We could afford to send our kids to expensive private schools, yet we don't. Wonder why that is..............
