We're thinking about homeschooling our little one when the time comes. I know a few families that are homeschooling and they are very happy with it. My question is, are you part of group, or do you do it by yourself? I heard...

wahmbrendamh I agree that homeschool shouldn't be about shoving your nose in a book all day. There's more to life than that. Of course, there are also homeschool groups that divide themselves on these lines. If you take some time you'll find 1 you like.

We are considering homeschooling, and I wanted to hear from the other parents out there who also homeschool. What are the advantages and disadvantages of homeschooling? Also what made you decide to homeschool?

wahmbrendamh I totally agree with you. While I'm not trying to brag, everyone comments on how smart my dd is and can't believe she's only 5. I don't think she'd be this way if I didn't homeschool her though.

wahmbrendamh That's great to hear. I think that moving on faster is also a great benefit of homeschooling. In my opinion, a lot of the kids who are getting in trouble in school are very bright but very bored. Brenda Marie Homeschool 4 Us (My homeschool blog):...

wahmbrendamh I'd agree that children are able to learn a lot more at home, even if you only do school for a few hours a day. My 5yo dd is unschooled for the most part and yet she's doing 2nd grade work. Brenda Marie Homeschool 4 Us (My homeschool blog):...

wahmbrendamh I'm glad to hear that you're happy with being homeschooled. I don't like the fact that the public schools won't allow children to ask questions. I mean if you can't ask a question then your love of learning is being squashed and that is not a good thing to...
