We homeschool our 9 yr old. Homeschooling is a wonderful choice for educating, although it is not the right choice for everybody. For us, it has been and continues to be a fabulous experience for all 3 of us. I could go on and on about it, but I know since you were homeschooled yourself, I'd just be preaching to the choir.
I am a little surprised and disappointed that on a big active forum like this, you haven't gotten more replies yet.
