People joke about trying to drink from a fire hose. My feeble attempts to keep on top of the hundreds of blogs I try to read feels more like trying to drink from the Mississippi.
I do make it a point to frequently drop in on HomeSchoolBuzz.com. Gary does a great job of tracking homeschooling in the news.
Gary found a cool article about a 14 year old homeschooler who is managing other people's money! Tales of a Ninth-Grade Fund Manager goes on for several pages showing how Brandon spends almost all of his awake time studying the stock market. It is great when teenagers find their passions and are supported in their efforts.
The Utah Home Education Association recently had their annual convention, so homeschool was in the news in Utah. Gary found a positive article about the growth of homeschooling: The decision to homeschool. It is a good article. One of the fun parts of the article was a mother explained that when her children got out of line she would threaten to send them back to public school.
