Is homeschooling legal?

How do the children learn to interact with peers and others if they don't go to "school"?

Why would anyone want to homeschool in the first place?

Well, if you'd like to know more about those things and other issues related to home education, then welcome!  I'm glad you're here.  I am a strong advocate of home education because I believe that's the best setting for most children, but I am an even stronger advocate of parental rights.  This may mean that you and I don't always agree on everything, but that's ok!  I would defend your right to disagree with me and do whatever you want with your children even though I might choose something different for mine.  As a Christian, I think this is even a Biblical concept.  God doesn't force us to accept the gift of his Son.  We have a choice.

I haven't always thought that homeschooling was the right choice.  Nor did we always plan to teach our own children at home.  God led us to that decision through a series of events that actually brought us to where we are today as a homeschooling family.  

I hope you enjoy the website.  Spend some time browsing all the different areas.  I have some pretty serious chronic health problems and although the things I've written in that area of the website have been the most difficult, others have found the information helpful so I will leave it for your benefit.  I am a writer by profession and you can find out about my books by visiting the "Books" section.  Of course I also love to talk about my children and share photos of our family.  It has been a while since I've updated the photos because I've been working on a new book for a few months, but take a look at some of our older pictures and I'll try to add some new ones soon.  Of course, if you have questions, whether you currently homeschool or not, please feel free to e-mail me!  I will answer.
