Again I stress I am not against home schooling. I needed to have chemistry and physics to get into my engineering major ( and that was a long time ago). Not everyone is going to need to same set of classes in order to live well. Not every problem can be fixed with a single solution.

It is not very hard to do that level of chemistry and physics at him. I know because in the early 90's my family went around to curriculum fairs and sold books and laboratory kits to do just that. That was almost 20 years ago and the resources available now are light-years better. My siblings and I were homeschooled and all went to top rank colleges in engineering and science. If you have not tried to find such resources then you have NO CLUE what is available. Trust me, it is a lot. And now that I have a kid of my own I know darn well I can teach any subject up better than a public school can. Heck most subjects in the first couple years of an engineering degree I could teach.
