“We started home schooling in 1979 and I loved it. Our family was forever changed and we became closer and happier. Where we lived in Idaho we were one of the first families to receive ‘permission’ to home school our children. We were pretty much alone and on our own, we were pioneers. That made it exciting for our family. We all learned to defend our family decision and became stronger in the process. I have had people who are considering home schooling ask me so many questions and they always say ‘but can I?’ The answer is always ‘yes you can.'”
