I love this forum.
I am exhausted, from an hour-long conversation with my mother-in-law, a life long public school educator about how horrible homeschooling would be.
Try not to get into debates with her right now (if it can be avoided...) I'm sure she feels a little defensive of her profession and truly there are great teachers out there. It's just that for now, homeschooling looks like the best option for your son. If she is concerned, remind her that no decision is set in stone. You can try homeschooling for a while and maybe other options will present themselves in the future.
