Not everybody has the time or desire to home school

It all comes down to parental involvement and choices.
Me and my wife have a good balance I am bad cop and she is good cop and homework queen. She makes sure she knows where they are most all the time and we have been blessed to haver her stay home with them until last year she is now using her Education degree to teach. Post children and pre grandchildren so it is a good zone to be in. Discipline is consistency and is consistency is discipline !!

Yes I agree Texasbelle it is all about choices. You must be a very very patient woman to homeschool! I consider myself patient but needed some down time after being a stay at home mom. Our school zone has been a very good one too. Thank goodness!
