Homeschool or Classical School?

Cindy at Dominion Family has some interesting thoughts on this issue.

I posted this comment on her blog the day before in response to a related post:

It’s my 2 graduated scholars, both godly and intelligent young men whom I respect and enjoy, that keep me going…wouldn’t trade my relationship with them for anything…and I find it hard to believe it could have been built any other way…

And…how would I ever find the time to read aloud for 2 hours a day to my younger crew if they were in school?

Nope…not worth it. Too much I’m not willing to sacrifice for the “potential” academic benefits…which I’m not even sure exist.

This is on my heart b/c I’ve had several conversations about this from younger moms fearing their lack of ability to do high school with their boys.

Should I Be Worried?

“Awwww, they didn’t even kiss!”
