I home school my 4 children (although 1 of them is not old enough, he will be following the footsteps of his siblings). I have heard an endless amount of negative things about home education on y/a and therefore i was hesitant to let on that i have made this decision, but in doing so i have found that the only negative feed back i got was from my own family, my own as well as in laws. People i meet in shopping centers or strike up a conversation with in the bank or at the park are actually very nice, they are interested and actually praise me for my efforts, and if i see them again i'm introduced as "that amazing lady who manages to raise 4 kids and home school them"....its a great feeling to be recognized for what your trying to accomplish. Why do my own family (mother/father/brothers/sisters/aunts/uncles and the like) only see the negative and refuse to listen to my side and see the benefits...my kids didn't get this amazing without me so obviously i'm doing something right....right
