We've homeschooled our kids from the beginning, no public schools. Now that they are middle-school ages. they've expressed interest in finding out "how everyone else lives".

Considering we've come this far, we can't just say "no" and have agreed to let them go check it out. We went to the school (a few weeks ago) and they told us we'd need to speak with the principal. After 2 emails went ignored, we sent a third email that had a little information from the state on the legality of our request, and heard back in an hour, lol. He wants us to come meet with him, tomorrow, 8:30am.

Personally, don't want my kids to go for probably 100 different reasons, but I've got to be supportive.

How long will they last? Will I lose them to the system, or will they realize what they have and return?

Ugh.

don't do it lol. maybe enroll in sports and college level classes in high school so they can get a feel for it. the education they would be receiving would be reverting/degrading both socially/academically

So how do you raise kids, showing you value their opinions and faith in how you've raised them, and then just say "no", because "I said so".

They already are expecting it to be dumbed down.

My hopes is 2 weeks in. they're like F this ...

framing, aura and memeing. your in a marketing battle. realistically though who wants to be stuck in a class room the hole day. as long as they have a comparable social life out of Public School I can't imagine it's going to be more attractive

I certainly can't imagine losing to this.

I am hopeful.
