[QUOTE="Christy, post: 313968, member: 225"] This is unfortunately the case for our family. Because difficult child is soooo difficult, we do not have a babysitter or reliable respite so in order for husband and I to spend quality time together, we go on lunch dates while difficult child is at school. We home schooled for one year and it was a wonderful academic experience for difficult child and I loved teaching him. I also think we both felt tremendous relief at not dealing with the school but it was much harder to get the socialization for difficult child that I had hoped for due to his behavioral issues. Also, I found that it put a strain on our mom/son relationship because I had to push him so much to do the school work in addition to all the regular mom nagging. That said, with middle school upon next year. I am seriously considering homeschooling again if I'm unsatisfied with the program in which difficult child is placed. Homeschool is a great option for crafting an appropriate educational plan for difficult children. Good luck and enjoy! Christy [/QUOTE]
