It is definitely a big responsibility to take on the task. Most people I know who homeschool where I live do it because of religious beliefs. One family who decided to send their children to high school, (they were old enough to request their desire to attend.) found that some of the academic expectations were lacking in the homeschool program. The children were farther behind than the kids who are in school for 8 hours a day every day. I am sure this depends on the discipline of the parents and the program structure itself. You seem very educated and I'm sure you researched your program. I have to admit it is a task I wasn't able to do so I give you kudos for your achievements!
