[quote=Anonymous]DS is doing just fine with DL, he is in third, but he wants to go back to school. He likes getting up and being able to play until 5 minutes before class starting. He likes being able to play with his toys during breaks. He likes having his favorite foods for lunch. He likes snack options. He is able to handle pretty much everything on his own. He participates and is engaged. But he wants to go back to school.

I think there is a subset where DL has been great, kids who have had issues with bullies or specific learning issues. I think there is a sizable percentage of the population were the kids have been fine and adjusted but would not choose DL over in person. I think there is a subset that DL has been horrible for. I also think that there is a subset that DL could have worked ok for but there was not enough support/structure/reinforcement at home because the parents didn't like DL and just gave up on it. Admittedly, those parents will tell you that their kid was in the DL is horrible subset.

Overall, I would say that there is a small percentage of kids who have discovered that DL is better for them than regular school but I would be surprised if that was greater then 10% of the population.[/quote]
