    Are there any homeschooling forums you can recommend? Besides gifted homeschoolers forum, and well trained mind. Thanks!

    Any particular 'style'? I am on a few different style ones that fit with my approach, but aren't specifically gifted homeschoolers.

    Other than those two, there isn't many I have found.

    Yeah I don't know my own style either!

    I'm on an unschooling forum for my location, there might be something like that.

    Actually I personally find it very difficult to get onto unschooling groups because there is a real push against early learning on a lot of those forums, and while I'm not against that per se, it doesn't work for us. So I don't know?

    There was some talk a while back of having a homeschool chat thread here, maybe we need that?

    The Learning Environments subforum here has "Discussion about homeschooling" right at the beginning of its description - why don't you go ahead and start whatever thread(s) you'd like to see?

    smile I was thinking of it. I've always felt comfortable talking about homeschooling here. I wonder how many homeschoolers are on here?

    I started a homeschooling role call on the learning environments board, so we can get an idea of how many hs'ers there are. smile
