    That makes complete sense. It is good to know that there are options out there and to not treat a HG+ kid in a public school system equivalent to a life sentence. We are planning to try public school, you just never know. DS4 is very social and active. Only time will tell. If I ever pulled him out to homeschool, I would have to let someone else home school him while I worked. Maybe grandma? Anyhow, thanks for sharing. I think you are quite wise to be open to options, and what will best meet your children's needs, and to acknowledge that your children's needs may be different.

    If you decide to homeschool, come here and talk it through. There are a surprising number of ways to make it happen even while you work. It's harder--no question! But it can be managed.

    And options are good! Indeed. laugh

    BKD -
    Virtual hugs to you!!!

    Would the private school work if a spot opened up for DS4 (a cancellation, perhaps?)?
