I know there are situations and circumstances that cause one to decide to opt into public school once their children have reached that age. BUT I do see it happening a lot because of reasons beyond my understanding. For example:
- My child wanted to
- oh, okay, well at one point my child wanted a tattoo....yeah we didn't do that either.
- I don't know where I would even begin
- really? how did you begin homeschooling in the first place.... or hey, there's the internet.
- I don't know anything about record keeping
- again, there's the internet.
- What about a diploma.
- don't even need that to go to college.... I am a college graduate and I was a high school dropout with a GED.
Anyway, there are more but I don't want to give in to my negative snarky side :). What? its too late? oh well, I tried. My point is don't invest so much of yourself, spend so much of your family's time and resources just to give up out of fear or uncertainty. Again, I do understand that there ARE reasons where homeschooling ISN'T what you feel is best for your family and I am not arguing that. I am referring to those who don't homeschool high school out of fear of failing or fear of trying. Just hang in there, do what's right in your heart and give your worries to God for Him to handle.
