I hope you will seriously consider homeschooling. We have homeschooled for 11 years and are really enjoying reaping the rewards. We have three teenagers and a nine yo and from what I see of them and the comparison to many of the kids we know who go to government schools, I have to say that I would not consider subjecting a child to the environment of government schools if I had any other choice. My kids are not perfect, but we are extremely happy with the choice we made.

My wife and considered home schooling, but it's simply not feasible for our situation. Even if it was, though, IMHO our child, with his particular set of problems, needs to be in a structured, old-fashioned classroom evironment with other kids. The Christian school he goes to ... which we love, BTW, it is a REAL Christian school, not just in name only ... is the best way to get that since you can't get it today in government schools. FYI, his school uses a lot of curricula that home-schoolers use, like Abeka and Saxon Math.
