Great post! We too made the move last Fall to homeschooling after our child was punished for his disability and we found out how dishonest his classroom teacher was. Mine is 7 and 2e/PG/ADHD/DCD w/ vision issues and an anxiety disorder.
I agree that it does look overwhelming when we are so used to turning our children over to schools to be educated... I have never wanted to be a homeschooler but the difference in my child is astounding. It is LESS demanding than dealing with school trauma day in day out. He is actually learning every day now and proudly says he is homeschooled. He frequently exclaims, "Great day today. I'm just so happy!!"
Ironically, I am going back to school to work on a graduate degree I have wanted to pursue beginning in the Fall and I believe Homeschooling will make it easier to do so. We are hiring undergrads to both watch and teach him while I am in class and look forward to the cool opportunities of those relationships and that enrichment.
