Her 3 older siblings managed to rack up nearly 2 years of AP courses. This, of course, was free, except for the cost of the test.

In this state, she is not permitted to take the GED exam if she were to leave school. That means NO access to government scholarships at their state universities. They would have to pay for these courses on their own, and the usual path to state and federal scholarships and loans is blocked.

But,,,hey!...What is the cost of a child’s soul? I suppose we could ask Esau. He traded his birthright for a bowl of stew.

Again. I can hardly stand to watch it. I’ve seen this so many times before.

Perhaps you can help me with this one. I simply don’t understand why home educators don’t enroll their kids in a private HS (via a correspondence study program) to get the HS Diploma. Why not spend maybe $1,000 over 3-4 years, get the HS Diploma, and render the issue moot?
