    Love this! Planning to home educating my nearly 3 year old and i am still torn whether to send her to pre school for 1 or 2 days per week or not. Single mama needs a break sometimes haha. X

    Oh totally!! I can imagine being a single mom and choosing to home ed is an even tougher decision in a way but I have a few friends who are single parents and I think the main thing is to get a good network and social group because that does give you a break and the support system around you really helps!

    Good conversation! School is a contrlolled environment to create emotionallly and intellectually dependent citizens.. without it, we would not have social structures that we have today. It will never reform but will always conform people to behave to social norms...no free thinkers will make it through a school system...those are the dropouts.. No one is employed into a facility with the same age co-workers😂 why have it like so in school? It helps with control and is a motivating factor in "moving up" a grade if you play all your cards right and wont getnmarked down enough to fail*
