Something I read about HSing really struck me. For people who say they can't HS b/c of XYZ, some of those reasons are actually parenting difficulties...which in actuality, need to be dealt with regardless if the kid is in school or not. I think those difficulties can be more hidden b/c the kid is in school all day so there is reduced interaction between parent and child. But some of the difficulties I have w/ my son over getting school-type work done, I see it w/ chores, hygiene, etc ... it's not specific to school work.
