We don’t have to do the mad dash to various stores, filling out obligatory lists of supplies, and spending way to much on clothing and back packs, etc. We get to buy our supplies when everything is super cheap, after everyone else is in their classrooms.

We also don’t have to have arguments with kids over “dorky” clothes. Want some cheap entertainment? Go to WM the week before school, and watch all the harried moms and demanding offspring as they bicker. Too funny.

AND, transportation. Now we are not unbiased, as our business is ironically transporting children to school. However, we’ve lost all our Dist.18 contracts this year. And the Dist. decided to do it all themselves. And it’s not going to hot. We’re already getting calls from parents - not that we can do anything about it - but it’s funny. Not for them, but because the district PROMISED there would be no change in service. Ha, ha. Fat chance. I am so glad my kids don’t have to spend so much of their days on a bus, with all the crap associated with it.

These are just three more good reasons we enjoy homeschooling.
