As you are exploring the reason for homeschooling, I hope you will also explore the history. You can find a shortened version of the brave woman who jump-started the movement back in 1970 at http://www.examiner.com/spiritual-perspectives-in-baltimore/in-the-face-of-adversity-the-story-behind-the-home-schooling-movement.

Please share the story with all those interested. I think it should be known.
