[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 436804, member: 11791"] Depends on you, the kid, your relationship, the system you're in and the options available... If you're a "natural teacher" it makes it a whole lot easier - I can't teach my way out of a paper bag! No idea how the kid is with "unsupervised time"... THAT simply would not work for us. What will the kid do when you are at work? If learning is a real difficulty, then sometimes trying to be the teacher puts a strain on the relationship. Other times, its school that is the real difficulty, not the learning... Rules for the system you're in - there's so many flavors out there...! Options to look for: ASSUMING you can make use of some self-directed time... - on-line schooling (cyber-school, synchronys classes, async classes) - correspondence courses (paper-based, mail-in assignments, etc.) - hospital schooling... if the doctors "require" the kid to be kept home, then the system may support you with work done at home but marked by school-system teachers... - some school boards support home schooling - including part-time schooling for the "extras" like band, shop, home Easy Child, etc.!
