Skinny,
That would be great, if it worked out. Im afraid in our case, it would be harder. I dont know of anyone around here that home schools to get the kids together. My oldest is getting ready to start 6th grade and he already has friends, so that wouldnt be as bad. My youngest is ready for Kindergarten. He wouldnt know any of the local kids. I live in the brush. Its not like there are kids around the neighborhood either. I guess there are always church functions and such.

I know my friend in the example above had trouble with that. They live outside a small farmtown, kinda like we do in Kansas. He basically said the same thing I was concerned about.

Are you home schooling? Like I said, we have talked alot about it. I just cant do it. Not with the job I have now. Cant guarantee I can be anywhere at any certain time. Gotta leave on a moments notice to make a living. My wife cant do it either. We could make it without her income easily enough, but she has great insurance through work and we cannot afford to lose that with my back problems and some other problems we have. I told her a long time ago she could quit work if we could get insurance somewhere at even double the price she pays now. We cant do it. Thats another rant.

Andy
