[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would do it if I had a spouse to support us. I have taught in a few different schools and there is a lot of time spent on non-academic things.[b] Standing in line, using the bathroom, discipline issues, etc etc take up tons of time.[/b] Really, if I added up the amount of time spent on academics, it would probably amount to 3 hrs or so each day. Socialization doesn't have to occur in a school setting either and most families who home school have their kids in outside activities. Homeschooling is great for kids who don't fit the mold of a school setting. My son is very advanced and will probably spent this entire school year not learning anything he doesn't already know and that is a waste IMO. [/quote] Don't overlook the importance of skills like waiting their turn, sharing with others, functioning in a group, and staying focused when the instructor's attention is diverted.[/quote]
