I was just wondering if there were any young parents homeschooling there young children.

My daughter is almost 3 and we do preschool stuff. Playing, coloring, games on the computer, sing songs, look at letters, etc.

I noticed a lot of high school age young adults on here (which is wonderful). Just wondered if there was anyone in my situation homeschooling youngsters.

Thanks.

" lol! My oldest son has a really cool teacher. He walked into the room, shouted all the "rude" words he was going to use, told the kids to get the laughing over with then started the lesson. Unfortunately, as Dan has Tourettes it was a HUGE trigger, and the lesson was punctuated by random expletives for the next hour. "

" here you can only go to public schools in your "zone" unfortunatly our school is not very good. I wish to home school however all family is unsuportive of the idea. at the moment, my son is only two, we count go through shapes, sing songs and when i have no time(i've just had twins) we watch educational tv together while i look after the babies.

I have wanted to home school for a while...my partner loved the idea but is now unsure. we still have a few ideas before it matters however "
