[QUOTE="Otto von Bismark, post: 508351, member: 12905"] We home school one of our kids. It is not everybody's answer, and it can take about a year (in our experience) to get used to it. It might be something to look into, but you need to be a good taskmaster/motivator, or she needs to be a good self-starter. It might make sense if she is not socially connected at school and if the anxiety really gets the best of her. I would be concerned that having her home could be harder on the depression if she is a social kid who has friends. I noticed that I do really need to work hard to keep my daughter socially engaged, even though she is a kid who doesn't need a lot of friends. I wouldn't call her a loner, but she is happy with a few good friends who have similar interests that involve animals. The do have good virtual school stuff out there, and if she does take pride in her studies, this can help her feel good about scholastic accomplishments. For us, it is difficult, but worth it. There are drawbacks, but the plusses are greater. [/QUOTE]
