SJ>Cheryl, thanks very much for your 2 cents, It was worth a million!
SJ>When I first decided to Home School my 5 children(4 now), It was so very
SJ>frightening. And not knowing who to ask or who to trust was questionable.
SJ>I finally decided to talk with the people who are actually in the
renches,
SJ>then I found quite a few different answers to the same question. So after
SJ>sorting through them it was a little bit easier to decide.
SJ>I want to register with HSLDA for legal info for California.
At what age do you have to report a child in California?
SJ>I was thinking of starting with my youngest at 4 years and gradually pull
th
SJ>rest into it so I don't ever extend myself. What do you think?
I wish I had homeschooled my older ones also, maybe they would not be
stuck in "dead end jobs" now. They are able to make a decent living
but are not in a field that they know that they can excell in
because they were never given the opportuity to excell in their
intrests in public school.
SJ>Your response about ABeka was conforting and will definatley
go that way for SJ>now. But what did you think was the best for K
grade?
SJ>Keep up the challenge.
Hi Scott,
First thanks for writing, and I hope you recieve
this. I am on a local BBS and do not have personal acsess to net mail. I
am hoping this gets through.
I am not an expert on homeschooling. I have just started with my 15 year
old daughter. I had gone the private school route, but when she had gone
as far as she could in our local Christain school I choose to homeschool
instead of sending her on to a private school further away. I had many
local parents to give me encouragement. They also help me with any
questions I had. Do you have anyone in your area that can give you
advise?
Do you have a wife that will be the main teacher, and you help? How does
she feel? My husband wanted me to homeschool long before I decided
on my own. It was a decision I had to come to.
Peace, Cheryl
