Hi everyone,

I am on this list but have not yet participated with this group. We are a
family
who is considering homeschooling and I am particulary drawn to unschooling.
My daughters are 2 and 4 and right now they are in church preschool a couple
of days a week for 1/2 a day so that I can run an at-home business. What I
am
planning to do is close the business and/or sell it this summer and start
keeping
my kids at home full-time. I really think my 4 year old is suited for
unschooling
because she is so inquisitive and loves to learn. Every question she asks
becomes
an opportunity to teach and she just keeps asking so she can learn more and
more.
I am so hesitant to put her in public school because I'm afraid she will
lose her love
of learning.  Right now she is having some difficulties socially at
preschool. Last
year she had a great year. This year a group of kids came from another class
and
all know each other and play together. My daughter constantly comes home
telling
me she doesn't have any friends and no one will play with her.  Yet other
adults
tell me how wonderful my child is. She is certainly outgoing and loves to
play with
others. I'm not sure what is going on in her class. I've spoken to the
teacher, but
they seem to think my daughter is using the term "friend" to mean "best
friend" and
they tell me all the children play together.

So my husband hears this too because he picks up the kids on Fridays and
spends
the afternoon with them. He thinks she should go to public school mostly for
social
reasons.  I'm trying to convince him that homeschooling is not about staying
at home
24/7 to teach in a classroom-type setting. (He thinks we need a room in the
house
for "schooling.")  I think every room in the house (and out of the house)
would be our
school.

Someone recommended I get the book "The Well-adjusted Child" and I've got it
on
hold at the library today and plan to read it ASAP.  I am wondering if any
of you out
there struggled with a spouse to make the decision to homeschool.  Also I
would love
to be able to meet with other homeschoolers as sort of a "information
session" like
you might have at a school.  I'm sure there are others considering
homeschooling
who would like such an event too.  Just an opportunity for several
homeschooling
families to talk about their experience and a typical day (if there is such
a thing) and
why they chose to homeschool, etc. The funny thing is that my husband's
brothers'
families are homeschooling. Nine kids between the 2 families, ranging in
ages from
5 to 20. They are all wonderful kids and sure there are struggles with a
few, but I
don't see anyone that is not prospering. I'm not sure why my husband still
thinks
public schooling would be better after watching these 9 kids grow up so
well-adjusted.

I'm hoping to make it to the playgroup on Jan. 31st. Is anyone else going?
I've been
to Lake Crabtree but not to the playground. Am I going to be able to find it
and
find others in this group easily?

Thanks for any information that you all can provide. I am glad to have found
this
group.

Katy

Hi everyone,

I am on this list but have not yet participated with this group. We are a
family
who is considering homeschooling and I am particulary drawn to unschooling.
My daughters are 2 and 4 and right now they are in church preschool a couple
of days a week for 1/2 a day so that I can run an at-home business. What I
am
planning to do is close the business and/or sell it this summer and start
keeping
my kids at home full-time. I really think my 4 year old is suited for
unschooling
because she is so inquisitive and loves to learn. Every question she asks
becomes
an opportunity to teach and she just keeps asking so she can learn more and
more.
I am so hesitant to put her in public school because I'm afraid she will
lose her love
of learning. Right now she is having some difficulties socially at
preschool. Last
year she had a great year. This year a group of kids came from another class
and
all know each other and play together. My daughter constantly comes home
telling
me she doesn't have any friends and no one will play with her. Yet other
adults
tell me how wonderful my child is. She is certainly outgoing and loves to
play with
others. I'm not sure what is going on in her class. I've spoken to the
teacher, but
they seem to think my daughter is using the term "friend" to mean "best
friend" and
they tell me all the children play together.

So my husband hears this too because he picks up the kids on Fridays and
spends
the afternoon with them. He thinks she should go to public school mostly for
social
reasons. I'm trying to convince him that homeschooling is not about staying
at home
24/7 to teach in a classroom-type setting. (He thinks we need a room in the
house
for "schooling.") I think every room in the house (and out of the house)
would be our
school.

Someone recommended I get the book "The Well-adjusted Child" and I've got it
on
hold at the library today and plan to read it ASAP. I am wondering if any
of you out
there struggled with a spouse to make the decision to homeschool. Also I
would love
to be able to meet with other homeschoolers as sort of a "information
session" like
you might have at a school. I'm sure there are others considering
homeschooling
who would like such an event too. Just an opportunity for several
homeschooling
families to talk about their experience and a typical day (if there is such
a thing) and
why they chose to homeschool, etc. The funny thing is that my husband's
brothers'
families are homeschooling. Nine kids between the 2 families, ranging in
ages from
5 to 20. They are all wonderful kids and sure there are struggles with a
few, but I
don't see anyone that is not prospering. I'm not sure why my husband still
thinks
public schooling would be better after watching these 9 kids grow up so
well-adjusted.

I'm hoping to make it to the playgroup on Jan. 31st. Is anyone else going?
I've been
to Lake Crabtree but not to the playground. Am I going to be able to find it
and
find others in this group easily?

Thanks for any information that you all can provide. I am glad to have found
this
group.

Katy
