Some great personalized information about playing hooky and learning to stand in lines. I agree; it is about finding a personalized education which is right for your own children.

Jodi ~ My boys have found ways to play hooky, although that results in consequences. The hooky time that stands out most in my head was over 2 years ago when the boys just took off in the wooded area by our house. Youngest son went looking for his older brothers. After walking up behind one digging with dad's shovel, he got wacked really good above his eye. Lots of screaming, bleeding, eldest son hiding from the blood, trip to the ER where stiches were had (with more screaming)...well, that made for a fun day. And, when dad got home that weekend they got in trouble for getting into his tools.
And, for the record, I was in the midst of packing for our move to MD at the time. Amazing how quickly seat work gets tossed aside when mom isn't sitting right next to them.

I feel so overwhelmed at times with this subject; especially with my oldest two.
It has/is taken a lot of faith and trust in God to get through this!

I loved this post too. There are so many resources now for homeschooled children and having 27 less students to teach you have a good chance of being ahead of your peers and actually understanding the concepts being taught. :)

Great post. Loved the playing hooky story.

I'd argue that homeschoolers do learn how to stand in line though. It's getting in line in places where lines aren't natural that is a struggle. :)
