[quote=Anonymous]If you went to your job and were treated this way, would you stay?

We all, of course, need to learn to deal with difficult people, but I think people are crazy when they force their kids into school buildings  with (actual) bullies. If the teacher isn’t helping the situation, that’s even worse.

It isn’t difficult getting set up to homeschool in Virginia. You need to send in a letter — called the Notice of Intent — to your district’s superintendent. (Check your district’s website. APS, for example, lists a woman’s email to send this information to. You’ll need a list of subjects you intend to teach (NOT curriculum titles) and send in proof of your own education (you must have a high school diploma or higher).

Don’t let him stay home and do nothing. If you’re going to go this route, you need to actually provide instruction. It’s a lot of work, but it’s really rewarding.

There are many secular co-ops in the area (religious too, but that’s not our jam).

We don’t homeschool for bullying reasons. Even the good public schools are so watered down that my kids were bored to death. Now they are challenged and testing WAY above grade level.[/quote]
