I have made the decision to homeschool my 5 year old. He is currently in public school and is having a lot of problems. After several meetings, I see that the school is basically telling me that my son is dumb. Well, I know that is not the case. I was even told by his preschool teacher that this would happen. She adviced that I do not put him in public school because he would get lost in the system because of his speech. She suggested that I find a school that would cater to children that learn better through more practical ways such as hands on, music, etc.. Well, I have not been able to find a school like that. I have decided that homeschooling would be best for him. I can't leave him in a school that feels he would benefit from having a cardboard box around him to keep him from looking at classmates for guidance. I am wondering if I should pull him out of kindergarten now since things are going so bad or should i wait until he graduates and start fresh on 1st grade?
