Anne, I enjoyed your thoughtful post regarding the pros and cons of home schooling. Like you, I believe children benefit from interacting with a variety of people, including those outside their socioeconomic comfort zone. We need to raise citizens of the world! However, we also want our kids to be schooled in a safe and nurturing environment. I'm going to do some research into the type of school you described (that your son attended) and see if something similar is available in our area for my granddaughter. Thank you for bringing up that possibility.
