Reply #51: Well, my family supported me AFTER I made the decision.

My sister has been really supportive of it; that's pretty much the story re my friends also.

Of course, I've made so many homeschooling friends - that is a wonderful thing.

The way I explain makes sense to people. I say, "Look, the average school wants the parent to work hours per day with their kid. It's necessary nowadays. Now, I do it when we're both feeling good, and aren't tired. I have a great deal of education, and I've been trained in tutoring anyway. Her program is what's best for her." Then, people understand.
