I have a sister-in-law that has 6 kids and has homeschooled them all. Although they do have a 1/2 dozen kids and strong Christan beliefs, that is not the reason they chose to homeschool. At the time they made this decision (early 80's), our family gawked with mouths wide open at their decision. However, seeing how great and well rounded their childen are now, we are closed mouth believers. And did I forget to mention smart?? Their first, after scoring a nearly perfect SAT score when she was 16, went on to earn her degree in Aeronautical Engineering. Their 3rd, 4th and 5th all scored very high on SAT's as well and were National Merit Scholars. A bit of bragging here on my nieces and nephew I know, but very well deserved.<br>I wish I had the confidence to homeschool because not only do you have the opportunity to have one on one learning with your child, you have the time to discover and explore!<br>Good for you and Ariella for having the courage!</p>kellychurneySat, 05 Sep 2009 12:36:52 -0000
