I am a homeschool graduate and ...YES, YES and YES! I am a homeschool graduate and homeschooling my own little students and I can testify the truth on all points. I certainly agree with #7. I am amazed at all the young people who aren't equipped to handle every day adult life. They are BASIC skills they should know and they just don't have it. Homeschooling truly changes lives.

I was ...You post is refreshing and encouraging. :)<br /><br />I was also a public school and a private Christian school teacher before homeschooling (but I knew I wanted to homeschool) my daughter. My teacher background actually hampered my homeschooling efforts. I had to unlearn many of my "classroom" habits in order to allow my DD to truly learn. <br /><br />We have been at it for almost 7 years now. She moved into the high school arena this last year. It is a new adventure for me as well. We had used Time4Learning and other supplements for elementary and junior high, but now we are venturing out on our own. We have become mostly unschoolers and lean heavily toward life skills. <br /><br />Well, I've rambled on much too long. Just wanted to say thanks for your post!!<br /><br />Joyfully,<br />JackieAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13282337046886177025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7628767515693863152.post-67405270226342360342013-05-09T08:56:46.388-07:002013-05-09T08:56:46.388-07:00I'm with you on number ten for sure: I have ga...I'm with you on number ten for sure: I have gained more knowledge in my twelve years of homeschooling than I have in elementary, high school, and college combined. I am not really the teacher of my children; I am learning and discovering right along side them.

We just had a "last day of co-op" party yesterday which was really humbling - the kids had "learned" certain information...but taking that information and putting it into a different situation to USE it? Oh my. Yes, #3 is HUGE!Amy Dingmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04955555538158746355noreply@blogger.com
