[quote=Anonymous] The biggest thing was my concern that my kid wouldn't do what I asked so they wouldn't learn anything. My oldest was really defiant (I never considered homeschooling her) and I was concerned that it would be power struggle after power struggle with my younger kid. I was also concerned about my ability to maintain the routine. Lastly, I was concerned about my ability to keep my son in contact with other kids. And I have actually mostly failed at this. :) It's okay though because homeschool was always going to be temporary; we just started because virtual learning was a fail and I figured anything I did would be an improvement. Then I did it this year because I realized DS has ADHD and I'd like to get in managed before he goes back to public for fifth grade. I'm so glad I am doing this! It's hard but it was absolutely the right decision. The pandemic obviously sucks but homeschooling has been a silver lining. I love that you're doing this! I think lots of kids would benefit from homeschool, even temporarily. It has also been really fun for me to learn all the things I'm teaching him. [/quote]
