A defensive mode really. I got it when I homeschooled and I get it because of my family size. So long as we know we are following God's will for our life we can be a peace.Christyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01129372114193004027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8146248571520928290.post-84450444974353546062010-02-26T18:02:22.778-06:002010-02-26T18:02:22.778-06:00Personally, I am disappointed in the way that many...Personally, I am disappointed in the way that many people have great concerns against homeschooling, but are largely uninformed about the realities of homeschooling, or aware of the great diversity in homeschooling families and approaches.<br /><br />Our children, too, have experienced both public school and homeschool. Though our children are presently in public school for a variety of reasons, we see tremendous benefits to homeschooling. Our oldest son is in college in what would be his senior year, after two years at home, and was well prepared for English 1A last fall.<br /><br />I just wish people were more knowledgeable in the quality of education and yes, social development, in a homeschool. In fact, the homeschooled children I know are far more comfortable interacting with people of all ages than most children in public/private schools.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8146248571520928290.post-48266636742077950752010-02-25T20:58:33.706-06:002010-02-25T20:58:33.706-06:00People say the strangest things when you tell them...People say the strangest things when you tell them you homeschool. My favorite is the socialization topic. Those people really need to stop and think of what kind of socialization happens in school. We get lots of social experiences, since we go out almost every day.Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00342467790727259855noreply@blogger.com
