It makes me wonder "what's up with home schooling"?
I personally know of one person that has home schooled her children.
Perhaps it is a difference in country's, I don't know????
Is "homeschooling" promoted in the States compared to here in Canada, I don't know? I assume that our education requirements and standards are relatively the same.
I think..... after thinking about it..... that American Women must have a heck of a lot more patience then we do here in Canada.... that's what I think :0)
Perhaps homeschooling is popular here in Canada and I just have not heard much about it. Let me know?
What do you think????
More power to ya ladies, my hat is off to you all.
I live in BC and it is very flexible to do "Distributed Learning", which is not homeschooling in a legal sense. It can look very much the same, but I still accountable under a certified teacher and school to meet the province's educational standards. In exchange, I receive some funding to purchase curriculum. Some would see this as a sell-out, to invite any government control at all, but obviously I don't.
ReplyDeleteAnd as for the patience thing...HAH! I think that I needed to learn more of it, hence the calling!
oops...tried to leave a comment, but guess my word verification must have been off...here goes try two.
ReplyDeleteI know loads of homeschoolers in Canada. Perhaps you will begin to meet some that you weren't aware of before...they would be thankful for your prayers I am sure!

Well, I can't speak for Canada but I know that a great majority of people in the US are homeschooling now. In our area it's partly because of the quality of public school/price of private school and partly because we WANT to teach them at home. It's exhausting! And wonderful. Blessings... Polly
