Boy have I loved reading all this :)
Hey - I couldn't homeschool too! Once we 'started' people would ask me if we did the work in the morning etc. It took me a while to get it, then , oh! you / they think we do school work - huh why would we do that? I didn't quite realise then that my idea of learning wasn't quite what everyone elses was. And I began to really notice the weight / power people gave to the education system to let them learn, as if they couldn't do it themselves.
Had another light bulb moment yesterday. I was thinking that I must really have a good play with cornflour so I get it (no lumpy sauces) and I thought about looking it up online first, and how that would be great for the kids to watch in terms of role modelling. Then, ping! no wonder school doesn't make life long learners (in general) because it's not a place you see people doing their own passionate learning. (I acknowledge that comments like that might be a bit out there on this list).
