[QUOTE="ksm, post: 706167, member: 12511"] Our town has a Learning Center, where kids attend "school" but it is actually just going and doing classes on line. Maybe 7 to 10 kids, a shorter school day, and very restrictive. Everything is in one room, no socializing except for 2 ten minute breaks and a 30 minute lunch hour. I over heard the teacher in charge on the phone with another parent. She was saying "no, I can't make your daughter do the work". "I am not her baby sitter" "just because she shows up doesn't mean I can make her do anything." I felt sorry for this teacher. I am just glad that I do t have to have her "job" and be the mom, too. I think if you continue to home school, you would have to have some rewards for doing the work. A minimum number of assignments done each day, then he gets the roku for that evening. Repeat, the next day. Good luck. This struggle is so familiar! Ksm [/QUOTE]
