Well, I’d start by encouraging people to think about it before they marry. One of the things that attracted my husband and me to each other when we met on this forum was that we were both homeschool graduates. We spent plenty of time talking about our theory of education before marriage.

Once you’re in and stuck, then yeah you have to make compromises. It’s hard for me to understand why one spouse would desperately want to homeschool and the other refuse, but it happens. Best course of action then is for the homeschool-fan parent to supplement education on evenings and weekends.

Very sad to think about. I am glad my husband loves me sacrificially and makes sure that I can stay home with our child. It’s very important to both of us that we are the dominant influences in her life. She’s four, and a sponge. I shudder to think what other people would teach her.
