I don't have much insight to offer but I wonder if her resistance to homeschooling is because she really doesn't think it will work or if it is more of a devil you know vs the devil you don't type thing.
DH figures DD doesn't want to be viewed as any more different than she already is (no one we personally know home schools although this is a very "homeschooly" area). Dd claims she will not do it because she spent so much effort making friends last year that she doesn't want to waste all that work.
One of the plans at the beginning of the year was for DD to check out a home school co-op or class. Regular school got in the way; we just got too busy to add on something else.
