Home Education

My son is still too little, but I plan to homeschool him and his brother-to-be. My main reason for doing this is that we live in Guatemala, but my children will be half-Canadian. I want them to have the ability to continue their education in Canada or the U.S. I was homeschooled all my life, I never went to school. My parents originally just wanted to make sure I was strong enough to withstand peer pressure, but when I did very well the first year, they just kept going. My three younger sisters were also homeschooled. If you want to know more, I´d be happy to answer any questions you have, just message me.

I'm homeschooling my dd and have been doing so since she was 3 - she's now 5. I use the Charlotte Mason approach. I just wish our state laws were more lenient but I have learned of ways around them. So, while I've considered joining the HSLDA I haven't done so. Our homeschool is: "homeschool 4 us" Brenda Marie Homeschool 4 Us (My homeschool blog): http://homeschool4us.blogspot.com/ My ebook: "Homeschooling Without The Headaches" http://stores.lulu.com/store.php?fAcctID=812683

I am getting ready to stary homeschool. Im a little scared though. So many people think I am making a big mistake. I think I am doing my kids a favor.

Wow, awesome that you are asking questions. We homeschool. We have 2 girls that are 6 and 3. We have unschooled them since birth gaining most of our insight from www.sandradodd.com/unschooling We do not do curriculum. We learn all the time. We spend a lot of time learning in the car through discussion such as why it rains and lighting and lightning rods and what lighting is and what thunder is. I guess lots of science discussion in the car, lol! Very happy with our state laws here in Michigan. We do not belong to HSLDA. I really can't answer if I had to do it again, because we are barely started. I have wanted to homeschool since my oldest was 1 month old. She is very bright and I didn't want her getting bored in school. Plus, if it isn't fun, she won't do it. No name for us! HTH!

My sons are still little, but I plan to homeschool when they are older. My state is extremely lenient when it comes to homeschooling, thankfully. I'm not a member of the HSLDA, though I've thought about it.
