People who can't teach their own children shouldn't be allowed to have any.
unfortunately, they have not made that law here, maybe in china where you're only allowed to have 1
Any Other Home Schoolers on Here?

Yes, I have taught using SOS ......not my children but some of their friends when we do 'switch-offs' so each of us moms can have a day off!
I haven't tried the new Monarch but am most familiar AOP's LifePac & Horizons.
This year I have quite a few JWkids who are entering public school for the first time so it seems I am up to my ears in Glencoe, Holt, Pearson and McGraw-Hill!....good news all of them are hitting above standard on TAKS prep!
Check around local churches ands see if there is a local homeschooling support group or co-op.........being able to trade has been a blessing especially since my daughter has all of the sudden rejected non-printed material!

I chose not to become a school teacher because of class size, pay and not wanting to commit 5 days of my life to work.
This doesn't mean however that I haven't read through most of the course material from Texas A&M either on my own or in helping friends receive their degrees/certificates.
Learning has to be fun and adaptable to each kid at times but still demanding conformity at others.
I personally feel allowing each child to progress naturally at their own pace is important to their self-esteem.
