Should YOU Homeschool Your Child? Do You Have What it Takes to Teach Your Child at Home?
A good article covering many of the concerns and fears faced by people considering homeschooling.
Questions covered include:
- Is this really legal?
- Am I capable of teaching my child?
- Don’t I have to be trained as an educator to teach?
- Do I have enough patience to teach?
- What about my work?
- But what about the expenses of homeschooling?
- If I homeschool my child, will he learn how to socialize with others?
- What will everyone say?
A nice place to start if you are exploring this possibility.

We have home schooled (privately educated I like to say) our 11 children since day 1.
John, I’m part of the A-List and this is one of the best topics I can think of for people to look into. The rewards are amazing, the growth experiences (for YOU as well as the kids) are second to none and the social protection it lends I would not trade for my life.
My kids are the center of attention, top students and always hungry for knowledge. I’m glad to have discovered this site!!!
I will be back with a smile on my face to read your adventures!
We do a similar project, but with our family as a whole at http://www.buckley12.com
