>>Just out of curiosity, what was the highest level of mathematics that you ever took and passed?<<
Ooooo, let me answer!!!!
Junior high pre-algebra.
But I’m not teaching math to my kids. These people are...

And if they don’t get it, another homeschooling parent or student helps them out.
There’s this thing. It’s called “the internet”. It’s a wealth of information. In fact, there is a site called “Free Republic” with a “chat” forum. I can’t tell you how many Algebra problems I’ve popped up on there and gotten TONS of people helping out.
But my kids don’t hang out with the crossdressers and gay couples like their “Public School” friends. That’s actually quite alright with me.
Algebra is not the only high school math that is taught. Geometry, pre calculus and a raft more.
I am not suggesting that one shouldn’t home school based solely on one set of curricula. To think that you can self teach mathematics is a kin to having yourself for a lawyer
And for the record.... my child when in high school didn’[t hang out with the dope smokers, the drinkers, the overtly sexual.... Teaching your children how to judge character and pick quality friends is a parents job.
You ought to try www.theswap.com for algebra help or other gnarly home school questions. It’s a forum of friendly homeschool moms and I think you’d love it too.
