I am home schooled, too. This year there areonly four of us still school age, and I am graduating this year. (Hopefully, but I'm not supposed to until next year,so we'll have to see. I think I can, though.) My brother will be in ninth grade, and my two sisters in sixth and third. All the others have already graduated.Mamading; I agree that homeschooling has a lot of positive effects. I've never been I the leader type, and I don't think I would have been strong enough spiritually to resist some of the junk that goes around in some of the public schools. I also don't think I would have had as much desire to learn, because what drives me is being ahead of where I should be. And there is so much more oppotunity to be close to your family at home than there is spending seven hours a day in school, and I don't think I could concentrate on work in a room full of people my age, who are often-although there are definitely exceptions-silly, giddy, and over all distracting. To name a few reasons.
Not that I think homeschooling is for everyone, but there are a ton of resons to consider it.
