Although I'm still homeschooling I often wish (almost every day) and have frequently discussed with other friends (both hs'ing and not) that I/we wish there was such thing as part time school. Then the kids could have the benefits of some school but also have more time at home with family and more family control over some of what they're learning. There are situations in which kids have a personality interaction with the mother that makes it harder for them to learn from the mother. They take more liberties with us because we're the mother. They are lazier and less compliant, somehow. When they're with a non-family person they have to behave more formally and seriously I guess? Anyway, I wish there was part-time school!
