[quote=Anonymous]I started homeschooling because we are a military family, and I knew we would be moving constantly and that the quality of the military schools was poor.  I thought once we settled down, I would find a good parochial school for our kids.

Now I would never consider sending our kids to school.  Homeschooling is our way of life.  I love living life as a family.  I love my freedom.  I love the endless array of experiences available.  I love the fact that each child can work at his or her pace, pursue his or her passions, and never be bullied.  I love the way they interact with people of all walks of life, of all ages, at all times of the day and night.  I love learning with them.

NOVA has the most amazing homeschooling community.  The biggest problem is trimming down the stuff we could do and still have some time for the basics.  Every museum, community center, zoo, historical site...EVERYONE has stuff for homeschoolers.  We have lived all over, and nothing compares to this area.

My kids are each other's best friends.  And they have so many other friends, our house is overrun.  We can pick up and go visit family anytime.  I literally can't imagine needing to submit to an institutional authority in any way.

Homeschooling is a gift.  I can't recommend it highly enough.  [/quote]
