Chiming in late...

Kriston,

I absolutely would pull him out, and I am glad that you already have reached that decision. In my opinion, keeping him in the class would be giving him the wrong impression. One of the most beautiful things about homeschooling is that you are free to change tack if things are not going well. I don't care if he was learning, he was also aware that this woman did not respect him. He's far too young to have to shut up and deal when there is an easy way to get out of the class. He seemed a very sensitive young man when I met him, and I hate to think of that "teacher" crushing his spirit or making him feel that he is inferior. Grrr!
