My coder is trying to persuade me to move to .net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the costs. But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using WordPress on various websites for about a year and am concerned about switching to another platform. I have heard great things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can import all my wordpress content into it? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Here’s a funny quote to make you smile
Okay, who put a stop payment on my reality check?

On the same wavelength as the The Chatelaine's Keys » Blog Archive » What Is It Like to Homeschool?, issue, Friends, let me emphasize again the importance of looking into home schooling now. This is not the public school system you attended. Things have changed. Make the move if you can now to get your child started in home schooling. And, if possible carry this on to the 4th grade.

I am reading about homeschooling and appreciate the information. I am currently not working and really not very pleased with my 4th graders performance at school. He’s one of those sliding between the cracks kids. Not bad enough to test like theres a problem but just can’t keep up with what’s going on in the classroom and I’m afraid it’s going to catch up with him in 6th & 7th grade.

Can you provide me with any information or direct me on what steps I would need to take to start the homeschooling process? Is this something I can do for the remainder of this year and then try the public route again next year?

This is a very interesting post for me.

I have been tossing around the idea of homeschooling my 8 year old son. Great food for thought. I’m going to show my husband your post.

Great info,

Thanks for sharing, Sharon! I love your schedule!! I’ve been tempted to homeschool my son since he started going to school, but I work full-time outside the home.

So far, the school has not killed his interest in learning, though he HATES homework with a passion I don’t see anywhere else. He’s 9, and reads at 10th grade level, but math hasn’t clicked for him yet. I want to help, and we do explore all kinds of wonderful things, but he’s such a perfect candidate for homeschooling…leave him alone with an idea and some books and he’ll read as much as he can then ask forty million questions.

It’s someting I’d do in a heartbeat if circumstances change.

It’s really interesting to read how you homeschool. I believe “personalized” education brings better results, though it’s harder than leaving kids at school and then just teach them a couple of things at home.
When I was at elementary school my mother used to give me some extra “homework” to supplement the subjects I learned at school. It wasn’t “fun” for me, but I learned important things (venn diagrams, among them!) that I found useful later.
