Hi, I have yet another question about what to do with my resistant 6-yr-old son.

His refusal to do his school work is so frustrating and aggravating that I finally decided to give it up and pull him from school, "unschool" him for a while, and have faith that he will come back.

I have begun to make plans, joined an homeschoolers alliance here, am piecing together a schedule, etc.

I just don't want to send him back to school after the break. It's too exhausting. The anxiety is beginning to get to me.

But just to show how far apart my dh and I are on this issue-- today he said to me, fine, you can pull him out of school for the rest of the year, but I think he should repeat first grade next year.

He seems very fixated on the fact that my son is "getting away with something." Also that ds is controlling the situation and not us. And he's concerned about my emotional state as well.

I just feel I'm being pulled in so many directions...
