I agree with a lot of other people on homeschooling when it is done well.

My family makes sure that I get enough time outside of the house just as I do inside of the house.

I like homeschooling because you can learn at your own pace and at your own time. I find that in a public school system, the children are treated as one mindset that grows at the same rate as everyone else. That's not entirely true. Some children learn slower than others, and the teachers don't want to devote any "extra time" to children who need that extra little time to practice something.

My mother travels a lot, and we've been to Europe on several occasions. In the 3rd grade, we went to London and France for 2 weeks and it was so hard to get all my studies coordinated. Now, if we go to Europe again while I'm homeschooling, it'll be much easier to do it because I'll get it organized in the right way.

Some homeschooling providers don't do what they say we do. Thank God we have found a good, reliable resource.
