RE: What Does the Turpin Family Tragedy Mean for Homeschooling Families?
This is a thought provoking article. Do you think it would be better if a centralized organization should be required for home schooling families to support each other and provide protection for families in need?
Our family has considered homeschooling for a while but found we can't be with our kids for that long. It was better to send our sons to the public school and teach them after school.
There are groups out there to provide legal protection for families. You can't be with your kids that long, as in all day? I do not sit with my kids all day long. We have a lot of stuff going on including meeting up with friends, chores, doing our schoolwork, making meals, playing outside, etc. If it were sit at a desk and look at each other all day (like a normal school-length day), no one would like that.
Got it. Thanks @apanamamama for your reply. Bottom line is my wife thinks they need adult supervision all the time. So the school is like her babysitter.
