[QUOTE="helpmehelphim, post: 15637, member: 2650"] Thanks SRL for sharing that link. I've gotten a lot out of reading it. It really comes down to the child (and parent of course) and what helps them. I'm glad there are choices. I've found myself thinking that a lot lately during this new home school experience. What environments and learning styles work for so many, don't work for all. It was like trying to smash a square peg in a triangle...or something like that. It was actually pretty frustrating to me to try for years things that seemed to work for so many kids and see those same things only increase the frustration in my kiddo to the point where he did spend a few days in the hospital. And it was only out of desperation that I started trying other things because quite honestly, an approach like Greene scared me in that it was so completely foreign to me being raised in a very authoritarian and judgmental environment as I came from back in the day. Again, thanks for sharing that. [/QUOTE]
