I have reservations about homeschooling. Yes, one might be able to control what goes into a kids head for the next 5-6-7 years, but after that its impossible to control what kids are exposed to, nor do I think its necessarily helpful to shelter them from the realities of life. They need to learn how to get along in the real world, with all its imperfections and challenges. They need to develop mental & emotional resilience. Plus, I think it sows the seeds of Rebellion even further.
