[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Frankly, there was no intellectual stimulation in the career I had.  I was not surrounded by smart people. We all were just doing a job to earn a paycheck.

I love being a SAHM because it has allowed me the opportunity and time to expand my horizons.  I teach my kids at home and I have basically studied in-depth all subjects that they are being taught from K-12 so that I could be a resource to them.  Bad public school teachers, school closings, lack of textbooks, substitute teachers, poor curriculum did not faze me.

I also continue to read, study, take seminars, and learn new skills for my own enjoyment. [/quote]

DP.  I homeschooled for a little while.  It’s kind of fun.  My kids were in middle school, and we studied the ancient world through the enlightenment over the three years they were home.  I learned a lot about history, religion, poetry, and philosophy.  
When they got to high school, they went back to school.
