[quote=Anonymous]My best friend home schools her children. She has two very bright children, one of whom is on the spectrum. Unfortunately, he experienced a lot of bullying which the school did nothing to address or control, and she felt she had no choice but to withdraw him. She has a set schedule and curriculum and her children are also able to listen to her and work independently when needed. They participate in other educational groups as needed and do all sorts of sports, music and chess lessons, etc. Her kids are perfectly fine socially (the one on the spectrum does have a few social issues that exist regardless of being in school or not). The nice thing is that she's able to take them on so many more field trips to actually experience what they're learning about. She does find in her home school community that they tend to be more conservative and families, where she's a New York liberal.[/quote]
