[QUOTE="Christy, post: 209913, member: 225"] Sounds challenging to put it mildly! How old is your son? I homeschooled my son for a year and it was a great learning experience for both of us. There are many resources available depending on your son's age an ability to work independently. My son required one-to-one support in order to stay on task and make progress. I could not have done it while caring for other kids at home. I know others homeschool with young kids at home so I'm sure with some planning, it can be done. It doesn't sound like going to school has been a good experience so far but it is the school system's responsibility to find a program that works. If homebound instruction is what the doctor feels is needed right now, then the school has to provide someone. If your son is in special education, then they must find someone with Special Education experience to work with your son. The school system asking you to homeschool him is not appropriate. If you decide to do this be sure it is because you want to do this and not because there isn't another option. Good luck! Christy [/QUOTE]
