For anyone that homeschools their child, what have you found to be the best high school curriculum?
Both of my daughters were homeschooled, our approach was not to use one particular cirriculum, but to pick and choose to each girl's strengths and weaknesses, focusing on their interests. You know… read more
I'm from BC, Canada and in the process of withdrawing my son from IEP and Special Education Support at School. I am just curious to know if anyone has gone through the same. Thanks in advance. Any input is very much appreciated.

My husband and I feel he… read more

Same here, I have always homeschooled my 11year old son but we did have an IEP with our school district from age 3 through to grade 3. Every state usually has a state homeschool association which can… read more

My 7yr old daughter has pain due to a dental infection.
Her Dentist is prescribing Amoxicillin to help with the infection and Motrin or advil for the pain.
Is there any liquid natural alternative antibiotics recommended?
When ever possible I like to go the more natural holistic approach .
Thanks
If your child has an infection then an antibiotic medication to kill the bacteria is needed. Using natural/herbal/homeopathic remedies that make claims but have no scientific evidence will put your… read more
Does anyone home school there child. Is there consideration for his IEP? We are thinking of taking my 9 yr old grandson out of the school he is attending, where he retreats into his own world 99% of the time, and having me homeschool him. He is a bright boy, but needs 1:1 direction at all times. In his district, a 1:1 aide is not used appropriately, the teachers seen to have them help in the class generally. Any advice or experiences would be a help. Thanks!
Whether or not a homeschooled child is eligible to receive IEP services really varies by location. Where I live, children who homeschool independently are not eligible for services but those who… read more
My son is refusing to learn in class and is interfering with the learning process of others. I am considering homeschooling or online schooling with my son. My son does participate in social groups outside of school so that element will not be completely missed.
Every child has different needs. I tried zoom learning, but after 3 sessions my daughter shut the laptop and walked away. She needs structure and a teacher or tutor sitting next to her. If your… read more
I really just want to explore ALL the options available to my children. My oldest son not being able to tell me if someone is hurting him or mistreating him is very worrisome. Every other day there's another heartbreaking story. I'm just tired of our children being abused. At this day and time, I am not concerned that either of my boys are being mistreated, just wanted to let you guys know :-)
I am planning on it. I am getting a Bachelor's degree in Social Work andplan on not only homeschooling, but also doing a lot of his therapy. In this state, good help ends at 3. I am a tutor for a… read more
So I keep thinking of homeschooling my son, for about a couple of years now. I don't know why I have done it yet. I guess one reason maybe I don't think I'll be able to get him to do work. Anyways, when or what finlay made you decide to go for it?

Help my ex wont give my son his meds on the weekends or vacation time he has him. so my son goes days without it and comes home more upset and violent with his sisters and me. I have try to talk to his father about making sure that he gets it but got told that he can give it to himself which the doctor says no because of where he is on the spectrum. I have tired talking to DFCS where I live and got told they cant do anything because I have the child most of the time. What else can I do because… read more
It is a form of negligence called medical negligence, I believe, for a parent to not give meds. I’m shocked that DCFS won’t do anything! CPS? My ex is the same but my child is only on meds when she is… read more
