Customer Reviews

excellent information presented in a non-threatening manner!

I'm considering home schooling my daughter and have read a few books on the subject, but this has been my favorite so far. This book would be perfect for someone just trying to learn more about homeschooling in general and what things they need to consider in making that decision. I especially appreciated the fact that the authors surveyed other families and they have included their input also, even when it didn't necessarily coincide with the authors viewpoint. This made me feel like the authors were truly trying to give the reader as much information as they could on the subject, without being dogmatic about it. I've read a few other books that made me feel like I was a horrible parent if I didn't end up homeschooling my children, so this book was extremely refreshing. The authors are upfront about the fact that homeschooling may not be for everyone, but they are encouraging to those who are considering it. As mentioned in the previous review, the authors are Christians, which was what I preferred since I am also. But this book has wonderful information for Christians and non-Christian families alike in my opinion. If you're looking for a book to help guide you in your decision making, I'd highly recommend this book.
