We just began homeschooling this year with our DS5 for Kindergarten...there is no acceleration choice for K in our county and they don't offer any services for Gifted K either so we had no choice. It was a little bumpy to start but we are SOOOOO glad we made this choice. Someone's comment of, "And we also have so many more of those moments when I give him a big hug and kiss and tell him how much I love him rather than dealing w/ a sullen child in the evenings and battling 2hrs over homework"....IS SO TRUE for us too....when he used to come home from his preschool Montessori he was a miserable, bored child and the evenings were spent trying to boost him back up again...it has taken several months and we have our happy go lucky child back again! Best choice we ever made
