My boys are better off in the local schools, which aren't bad, than at home. And we're districted to one of the best elementary schools in the district.Meaganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18030754599154402243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-971935222836083797.post-39047674628146165902011-07-12T13:38:28.228-04:002011-07-12T13:38:28.228-04:00I've struggled with this before I even had kid...I've struggled with this before I even had kids. I knew while still attending primary school that I was getting a sub-par education, that these skills wouldn't keep competitive with the world-wide market, and that if I was going to be educated, I would have to do it myself. I became my own best motivator and teacher and I took classes that weren't required in college, but that were fun and interesting and would contribute to a well-educated person. <br /><br />Anyway, that's why we are going the homeschool route. Private schools have their own problems. Even my beloved Montessori has it's own issues. Homeschooling has it's own issues, but I would feel the most comfortable if I can control that aspect of my children's lives at least. It's all about what's best for the kids.Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16271979350765753821noreply@blogger.com
