[QUOTE="Jena, post: 129028, member: 4514"] good morning, It is a hard decision to make indeed. I know i struggled with thought for few weeks out of sheer aggrivation due to her behaviors in school, her neediness level and mostly wanting to keep her safe and with me to be honest. I think it all depends on your child. I'm not sure what diagnosis your child has or if they are able to function well in regular classroom. I think for some it is the right decision for others it is not. for me personally i am hesitant regarding home schooling. We arent' in a true diagnosis as of yet but working on it. she experiences alot of anxiety and low grades now due to lack of focus has sleep issues, list goes on and on. yet when i sat down and wrote the pros and cons of situation which i often due when making huge decision. the benefits to sending her off to school everyday and not home schooling were far greater than home schooling for my difficult child. Yet as i said each child and situation is different. for me the reason i send her and will continue to do so is for her to make connections and work through her anxieties as opposed to sheltering her from her greatest fears. also i guess i would be afraid of home schooling and then someday she'd have to go into reality that being either high school or college, jobs in time, etc. and she would lack the social skills needed to survive the real world. which we all know can be so harsh. flip side is that i have heard stories of home schooling. where parents made sure there were enough extra ciricular activities as to allow for socialization skills, friendships, etc. so i'm sure i haven't helped much. just wanted to share my thoughts when i had to make my decision. i can see your side of the bonding thing. yet you can bond at anytime with your kids i'm learning even if it's just cleaning up the house together. good luck with your decision. do the list thing always helps me to see it on paper. jen :) [/QUOTE]
