[quote=Anonymous]20:20 here. We're really hoping to do a longer immersion into another culture for at least 2-3 years. Although my kid loves to travel, the thought of homeschooling for so long during a time when kids developmentally need to seek each other out and establish strong peer-peer relationships, makes me pause. It seems too isolating. Enrolling him @ an American school, as PP did, would help with integration with peers and preserving a link to the curriculum he'll need to eventually return to. I feel like when I did middle school, the groups that emerged from the first year stayed more or less in tact through high school. So, maybe keeping DS here for 6th, then traveling for 7th & 8th is a possibility. But would reentry be really tough anyhow? I never knew anyone who disappeared for a long time & tried to come back.[/quote]
