If you think I homeschool these children by complete free will and choice... You are way off.
If you think I lack formal education, or am unable to complete a dissertation... I can show you the door
If you think I am creating mindless, poor-adjusted, brain-washed, socially inept Zombie spawn.... You clearly haven't step foot in a classroom in twenty to thirty years, let alone my home during "learnin' hours'.
...And If you think I am homeschooling my house because its easy, or I am lazy, I just might kick you in the face.
Deciding to home-school my children was not easy. AT ALL. It was not a quick decision. We (my husband and I) battled over it for years. We incorporated preschool activity programs, we enrolled in cooperative activities, we researched schools of all sorts, HECK, we even enrolled AND he attended formal, traditional education for a complete year. It just wasn't for him, at that time.
I want my son in school, I want him in the best school we can find, one that suits his every need, but does not cater to him exclusively. I want him out of my house.
But,
I want whats best for him, more...
And if that means sacrificing my career goals, listening to public mockery over our schooling choices, standing up for our freedom of religious choice and flat out telling people to mind their own business while tripping over the periodic table of elements AND children in my living room, then I will.
Just a not-so average mom, getting fit between diaper changes and enchanted learning adventures.
