steve jones Posted October 1, 2009 ID:136337 Share Posted October 1, 2009 I live in the UK and my wife and I educate our 11 year old daughter ourselves - there is no dramatic reason why we took her out of school, but we love it. The Home Educating community here in the UK is fairly active, but the government don't make it easy! I believe it's actually illegal in some countries, and subsidised financially in others?

steve jones Posted October 2, 2009 Author ID:136835 Share Posted October 2, 2009 Hi all, nice to hear from you. I hear what you are saying Noknojon - most families can't afford to do it, and many are glad of a break from the kids come Monday morning! We are lucky because my wife and I both work part time with some flexibilty, so we can cope. It's frustrating in the UK because we get no support whatsoever but still pay all the usual taxes! Still, it's a choice we have made so suffer the consequences... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
