Re: looking into

Sounds a lot like what we have Garrett and Katie in. There aren't any books but everything else is similar.

Just saw in another thread that you may be getting a job (congrats and best of luck in getting it) but I don't see how you can juggle her schooling between two parents. I'll be honest I think that's a bad idea. What about if you or George have a really bad day at work and then are school her and she's not concentrating or not getting it.... can you honestly say you's would have the patience for it? I think homeschooling has to be one parents job, not something flipped between two parents.
I don't know any other parents that home school while both parents are working.

Re: looking into

Points taken but I have to try something else here. She is not on the right path now and I am not getting help for her from the school that she goes to school now to be the society queen. I can't sit by and let her fail. I think I owe her every opportunity that I can produce. George and I are a team we always do everything together this will be no exception.
