Daniel - I think it's great that you and your wife have made the commitment to homeschool your children. As parents, you have only one chance to provide them with a quality education.

I'm sure that there are those who would like to paint you as a religious nut, both in your community in the US and here on Goanet, still, keep up the good work.

While I am not aware what the Vasco perspective on homeschooling is, people in
the USA homeschool for a variety of reasons, amongst them being, philosophical,
medical and religious. For some it may be one reason alone, for others a
combination of reasons. For us, it was a combination of religious reasons, the
failure of public schools to 'deliver' in basic educational skills, the huge
problem with drugs, alcohol, teen sex, racial bigotry (that is still prevalent
in some areas) in schools and also our desire to see our children excel
academically and creatively. Homeschooling research and statistics have proven
beyond a doubt ( to us at least) that it is the best edcational option currently
available to us.
