We're brand new, and I already love the sense of team that I get from DYS. We're all in it together and I'm making new virtual friends who have the potential to become friends IRL. Not having to censor yourself with people about your kids is so nice! That and the help with advocacy and/or homeschooling curriculum are the big draws for DYS, I think.
There are also cool programs like online colloquia for parents and kids and mentoring available. Plus I think just having free experts available if you need help with anything is a big relief. It is to me anyway.
