You're not satisfied with your child's school situation. You've heard about homeschooling, you might have even attempted some teaching. Now, you're overwhelmed--should you consider it? Education at home isn't just about the curriculum, is it? Sit down with a cup of tea and a couple of warm chocolate chip cookies and have a chat. Have a discussion with someone who homeschooled her four children for almost a quarter of a century, in two different states, multiple economic situations, and through high school. This book doesn't discuss curriculum, it talks about what qualities YOU have--what characteristics your family has, situations you face that could help (or harm), including some criteria that will factor in your decision. After discussing these characteristics, the final sections provide a template for sorting this information into a written format to help you begin your plan, and then continue re-evaluating your plan as your children grow.
