Homeschooling my own children is also a joy. While homeschooling someone elses kids would restrict the way I homeschool and make someone else my boss. That is what I mean by it would be more freeing to work (for myself while homeschooling) from home. The Responsibilities of Homeschoolers - Blog Entry17 Feb 2007 07:51 AM Woah! These are not the kind of responsibilities I was talking about. I feel strongly against homeschooling someone elses as changes the character of your homeschool. To make an educated decision, you may wan to read my blog entitled "I want you to homeschool my child", and "I want to homeschool your child". It may actually be more freeing to work from home in addition to homeshcooling! Nepotism in the Workplace - Blog Entry16 Feb 2007 12:20 PM Personally, I don't see anything wrong with nepotism if the hiree is competent. In your case I would suggest a prestigious sounding job for the relative in question that would better fit their strengths.. that will get them out of the way and away from payroll, and keep dad and his kid happy. High School Activities in Middle & Elementary Schools - Blog Entry16 Feb 2007 12:06 PM When I was in high school, we had a senior prom and homecoming (for seniors)... It wasn't really that long ago was it. Now they start having proms in the 8th grade. I think it is ridiculous. Adventures of the Stockpiling Queen (1) - Blog Entry16 Feb 2007 09:57 AM My kids outgrew milk and cereal around age 9. My husband and I eat more cereal and consume more milk than the kids. They prefer cranberry juice, capri sun, and gatoraide. I don't purchase carbonated soft drinks (soda). My kids devour pop corn, pop tarts, and hot pockets, and frozen pizza... anything that goes into the microwave or oven and comes out quickly. I keep bags of salad around to balance it out, but alot of it goes to waste. I am going to attempt learning to bake muffins and such from scratch to make thier diet healthier. Homeschooling My Gifted Son. . .When the Others Are Not Part 2 - Blog Entry16 Feb 2007 09:49 AM I enjoyed this post... and the tornado one too! Adventures of the Stockpiling Queen (1) - Blog Entry16 Feb 2007 08:08 AM I have a chest freezer in the garage... they are less prone to mow through things they have to cook. The same goes for concentrated fruit juice that they need to add water to. I always buy frozen cookie dough to make them put some effort into comsuming it. Nothing easy to eat and prepare stays around here for long! Homeschooling from my sick bed - Blog Entry16 Feb 2007 08:05 AM Valorie... I should have said "don't try this at home with kids under 9"! Thanks Karen! Adventures of the Stockpiling Queen (1) - Blog Entry16 Feb 2007 07:55 AM I used to stockpile food, but it turns out that preteens will consume everything in thier sight... now we only have items stockpiled that they don't like.
