[QUOTE="AppleCori, post: 657279, member: 16024"] As close as your daughter is to 18, I would present all the options available to her and let her choose. Maybe 'owning' her education will give her some motivation. I have homeschooled all my kids at various points in their lives, in several different states, and all three of my older kids graduated from homeschooling. My kids HAD a graduation ceremony AND a prom through the homeschool group we were involved in. Some states do this through the pubic school system. IF your daughter is interested in those things, they may very well be available to her. I don't know much about homeschooling in California, but I do know that MANY, MANY people homeschool in that state and there are lots of resources available. You will probably be quite surprised if you choose to go that route. Start by inquiring into the state and local homeschooling groups found online. Call and talk to a 'real person'. They can tell you what is available in your area. Know that many people who homeschool do so because they have kids that did not thrive in the school system. You might find some support for yourself as well. Many groups have get-togethers through the summer months, so this might be a good time to explore this option. [/QUOTE]
