Now an updated edition of \u003ci\u003eSo You're Thinking About Home Schooling\u003c\/i\u003e by Lisa Whelchel--herself a homeschooling mother of three--introduces to readers fifteen composite portraits of homeschooling families who show how every family can successfully face the unique challenges of its situation. The story-based approach deals with common questions of time management, teaching weaknesses, and outside responsibilities, as well as children's age variations, social and sports involvement, learning disabilities, and boredom. Seeing a wide variety of homeschooling families in action gives parents the information and confidence they need to make their own decisions about home-based education. Includes a new chapter from Lisa and an all-new resource guide with recommendations from real-life homeschooling families! \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\"I'm Thinking About Homeschooling\" \u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eYou're also probably thinking, \u003ci\u003eBut can I really teach my children?
