My homeschooled children rarely spent more than 2 hours a day in their formal academic lessons. As in Jen B's case, they **never** had “homework”. They never did a formal “high school” curriculum either, yet, were admitted to college at the ages of 13, 12, and 13.

All of my homeschoolers finished all college general requirements by the age of 15, and two finished B.S. degrees in mathematics by the age of 18. The oldest was equally successful by attend college part-time, working, traveling, and participating in a sport. He recently earned a masters in accounting at an age typical of the general population.

So what else do you have them do with their day?
