Why Homeschool Teens?
Why Homeschool Teens?
by Elizabeth Smith
When our children reach the high school years, we begin to question whether homeschooling can really provide them with what they need—spiritually, socially, and academically. But homeschooling is effective in high school for the same reasons it is effective in the younger grades. As a matter of fact, homeschooling in high school can yield great dividends in the life of your teen.
Here are 10 reasons why you might want to consider homeschooling your teen.
1. Continue the Family-Building Process
The teen years are a strategic time to cement relationships that last a lifetime. Parents can continue as the primary role models. You can make sure that your teen is instructed and discipled consistently each day with moral training and sound doctrine.
2. Cement Family Relationships
Relationships are the most important thing in family life. When teens are away from home for six-to-eight hours a day, subtle changes begin to erode relationships at home. Divided allegiance or "serving two masters" can shake their foundation. The result is weakened family ties and parental influence.
3. Provide an Excellent Learning Environment
Receiving one-on-one instruction is the most effective way to learn. At home, academics have priority, and there are no classroom distractions. Conversely, studies show that barely one third of the school day in traditional high schools is dedicated to academics.
4. Individualize Education Based on Needs
You can customize your teen's education to provide motivating opportunities to develop gifts and abilities. In areas of academic weakness, you can provide extra time and help. No classroom setting can offer this consistent and loving support.
5. Accelerate Academic Progress
Many homeschooled children are academically ready to do college-level work between the ages of 14 and 16. Additionally, researchers have found that age/grade isolation or segregation actually inhibits socialization. Available data demonstrates that homeschooled children are ahead of their public school counterparts in maturity, socialization, and vocabulary development.
6. Have Direct Influence over Peer Relationships
Homeschooling allows parents to fulfill their God-given responsibility to...Read More Here http://www.hslda.org/highschool/docs/TenReasonsHTHS.asp

From: Todd and Terri Johnson
All around the country, parents are pulling their elementary grade children out of school because of the liberal agenda, worldly curriculum, low academic standards, overcrowded classrooms, lack of individualized attention, problems on the playground, harmful peer-pressure, etc. Choosing to homeschool the child in grades K-8 is becoming a commonplace decision, even considered acceptable and rarely questioned.
Why do they suddenly change course in high school?
Well-intentioned parents are returning their children to the classroom as soon as they reach their critical high school years. And often, all of their hard work in shaping and molding the next generation is erased and replaced by peer-driven behavior - self-focused, worldly and often times destructive.
The reason why most parents send their children to public high school is because of uncertainty and intimidation. We are unsure if we can provide them with...
all of the social experiences that the local high school can
the academic knowledge necessary to prepare them for college
the classroom etiquette and test taking skills required for their future education
In fact, we parents are usually convinced that our high schoolers are getting "too smart for us" and that there is no way we will be able to continue providing them with the challenging education that they still require. Our intentions are good, but our confidence level is low. Am I really capable of providing a high school education for my homeschooled student that is superior to what he would receive at the local public school?
I have good news for you! Yes, you are indeed capable!
What if I told you that there is an all-in-one resource that will raise your confidence level and give you all of the tools that you will need to provide an excellent high school education for your teenage child AT HOME, preparing him for college (if desired) and a productive future, without all of the trappings of the public high school? Would you consider giving it a try? What do you have to lose, really?

Painting With Spices :)
I've done spice painting before with L, but I thought it would make a great group activity as well! So I told everyone to raid their spice cabinet for old spices (no hot spices) and bring a bottle or two of white glue. I poured a bit of glue into tiny plastic cups and..... Read More Here
