FREEDOM FROM SCHOOL

I WITHDREW MY SON FROM SCHOOL, FINALLY!

3 yrs ago, i gave birth to a darling baby boy....and i wanted to homeschool him. I dint have the courage to tell my hubby about it...or somewhere i was unsure about it.

Last year i send him to school and felt guilty, i am a teacher for almost a decade now, i know the pros and cons of conventional schooling, have been reading so much on the net about homeschooling....yet, yet what was missing i dint knw. COURAGE I guess!

Veer, my son, is happy being at home, i remind him of his friends at the school and keep asking him if he want to go to school or be homeschooled with mummy....not once has he said i want to go to school.

Being a working mother is a challenge, but the advantage is i am a computer teacher, making books, downlading data, reading refrences posted by the group is a daily routine....so far its been good.

But i am sure that there will be challenges henceforth....for which i have this BLOG to fall back on.

I plan to just flow with Veers mind for a year atleast....no fixed curriculum! I have trained him to tell me puzzle time, coloring time, scribbling time, ball time, reading time, domino time, tv time, garden time, sandplay time, waterplay time and so on....the list is growing bigger by the day... phew! I am keeping my cool! But i am happy about it.

but there is one thing that i am pushing with noconsent of his is FREEPLAY time, that is my time to work and he is on his own....at my school or at my home....whatever, but he cannot disturb me! IS IT OKAY!....PLS COMMENT
