Hi kimck,

We "tried" home school this summer.... My kids got "scared" (and started sobbing) because apparently I looked at them with "big eyes" when they were not paying attention. crazy

Home school is not completely ruled out at this time..... especially there are so many great advices here on this board. We are still considering. That is, if I don't scare them and cause PTSD with my big eyes. With home school, DCs will have more time to read and explore, like you point out. These days, they complain about not having enough time to play and read books of their choices.

Thanks for the support,
Mag
