It's way beyond safety - there's exclusion, awkwardness, their fears, basically everything they feel and then some! <br />I want to homeschool too, but am afraid of holding my kids back socially, or protecting them too much. Lots to think about...<br />What a great and positive way to pray for your daughter. Thanks for sharing this! :)Janiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15008952811417807825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3782269058741241023.post-35625427685095619682011-05-04T12:42:36.969-04:002011-05-04T12:42:36.969-04:00Did Mayumi take an IQ test?Did Mayumi take an IQ test?Michelle https://www.blogger.com/profile/05124219665587194341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3782269058741241023.post-71531211453854341582011-05-03T20:55:04.666-04:002011-05-03T20:55:04.666-04:00Nice post.

But it will hit them one day, no matter what, so our job is really to help them be strong, confident and prepared to handle it. Home schooling is very uncommon here in Australia. But I read about it all the time on blogs from the US. Perhaps it's because our population is very much concentrated in large cities, with good access to schools? At any rate, I do wonder about the 'real world' preparedness of home schooled kids. Also I wonder how the mums maintain their sanity without a break, haha!Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03255370960186659884noreply@blogger.com
