They aren't always small! People tend to think 'homeschooling' looks like 'take a school classroom and bring it home substituting me for teacher' ... It really isn't like that and can look about a million different ways to suit supervisors and kids. You have so much patience is the homeschooling myth that gets the most laughter from HS moms, well, apart from the socialization one

But sometimes "can't" = knowing that emotionally/mentally this would be a really, really, REALLY bad thing to do. Basically, if I homeschooled, CPS would be visiting me at somepoint. I do not have the patience to teach. Repeatedly going over a topic, trying to find different ways to explain it, for me, is the 5th circle of Hell. (6th is shopping with my kids at Target) (The Captain Beth - she gets me, she really, REALLY gets me!) ETA - we literally posted at the same time!) And someday we'll meet for drinks or whatever.

I hope you know I'm just playing, Oped. I was pretending to be the typo police. That helps with a thread's longevity.

You didn't choose to... Which is a valid and perfectly appropriate choice... But I hate when people say they 'can't' because I feel compelled to tell them how they can Just doing my part people But sometimes "can't" = knowing that emotionally/mentally this would be a really, really, REALLY bad thing to do. Basically, if I homeschooled, CPS would be visiting me at somepoint. I do not have the patience to teach.

It really isn't like that and can look about a million different ways to suit supervisors and kids. You have so much patience is the homeschooling myth that gets the most laughter from HS moms, well, apart from the socialization one Take my word for it - homeschooling for me and my kids would be a disaster. My boy is 5.5 and we're STILL having poop in the underwear issues. A few months ago he was in tears when it would happen because of how I responded to him when he'd tell me. So no, I won't be homeschooling any time soon. And we've managed to recover some of the damage I've done to him regarding this. But using this as a mirror to homeschooling = a horrible plan for my kids. I'm not saying no one should home-school, just that I and DH would suck badly at it. And likely fuck up our kids interest in learning as well as their being reasonably happy and well adjusted members of society as adults.

To play devil's advocate though, and in interest of reaching 10 pages Why do you think you were responding to him in that manner?

Hey! Gay Marriage used to cause a thread to go on and on (and on). Wanna throw that into the mix? Or maybe now that it's just plain old Marriage nobody cares anymore?

So I will defer that to others who's actually been there with kids as a parent.

I can proudly say that I have NEVER stepped foot into a Chuckie Cheese, but my kids have had the experience several times so they won't grow up having missed out. I just send them with other people.

Last time I went my oldest was about 4. He and I spent the whole night taking turns puking. Refuse to go back. Where would it be on the circles of hell now?

I guess I wonder if 1) not having the time to deal with this along with everything else 2) having other people know that he still does this ... etc. play a part?
Lots of things that were 'issues' when I worked, weren't issues any more later because there was just more time, I wasn't in a rush to get some where, no one else needed to be involved. We could just stay home if it was an issue, how I talked to the kids changed... etc. There is more time, for more options, and less pressure...
Not saying that well. May be losing interest, lol.
Want to reiterate too that I don't know that I would have been good staying home with infants all the time. I think we all have stages/ages we are better suited for...
