I guess it’s got to the stage now that i can’t really just keep it quiet anymore and give non committal answers. So thought I’d tell you guys first, it might be a bit harder to sell it to my family lol. Here goes….

I am home educating my children!

Good for you and welcome to the HE world! You know, my DD is only four (and a half, almost!) and initially my family seemed worried, and more than a little doubtful. All the ususal stuff, would she have friends, what about doing exams when older etc etc. Only a year or so on and they all seem totally sold on it! I had a conversation with my sister on the phone the other day and she was really positive and said she wished she had been home edded herself. DH’s family don’t even know, we don;t really see them. Good luck!
