Dear Fellow Parent,
Congratulations on your decision to explore the option of home schooling!
Home schooling has been around since the beginning of time, including after compulsory education laws were instated. Over the past four decades the modern home schooling movement has grown tremen dously, especially in the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, Canada and NewZealand.
According to the National Home Education Research Institute, an estimated 1.9 to 2.4 million children in the United States alone were home educated during 2005-2006.
Studies done in recent years show home schooled children are learning more and are getting higher scores on the ACT and SAT tests than their formally schooled peers. A study at Wheaton College in Illinois showed that the freshmen that were home schooled for high school scored fifty-eight points higher on their SAT scores than those of kids that went to a public school.
On average, home schooled children scores 81 points higher than the national average on the SAT scores.
Our history books and modern Halls of Fame are filled with leaders, writers, inventors, humanitarians, artists, business tycoons, activists, and more who were home schooled.
This is just a very small sampling of famous Home Schooling : Albert Einstein Wolfgang A. Mozart Joan of Arc
Thomas Edison General Patton Walt Whitman
Benjamin Franklin Charles Dickens George Washington
Leonardo Da Vinci William Blake Laura Ingalls Wilder
Abraham Lincoln Louis Armstrong Orville
Andrew Carnegie Charlie Chaplin Wilbur Wright
Theodore Roosevelt Whoopi Goldberg Booker T. Washington Florence Nightingale Agatha Christie And one of the most recent famous Home Schooling , Christopher Paolini the best selling, young author of Eragon. And some famous home schooling parents: Will Smith John Travolta Robert Frost - Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Len Munsil - attorney and President of The Center for Arizona Policy (CAP) Paul Overstreet - Musician, Songwriter Kelly Preston - Actress Mike Smith - Lawyer and co-founder of Home School Legal Defense Association (HSLDA) Lisa Whelchel – Actress / Author
Still, home schooling remains controversial, albeit not as much as it was a few years ago. Perhaps home schooling sounds like a good idea to you, but you're not quite sure…
As far as I am concerned, whether you decide to home school or not, taking the time to find the facts and learn what other Home Schooling have to say, means you want the best for your children. And that makes you my hero.
You want the best education possible for you child/children; you will take the road less taken if it is the best one, and you aren't going to make this decision overnight or based solely on what your relatives, friends or school officials tell you to do.

Unfortunately the moment a parent mentions home schooling is being considered, a deluge of advice frequently follows, mostly well intended but often uninformed.
You may receive a great deal of advice from those who had never home schooled and often based on one or more of these factors:
1. Fear of doing something untraditional and / or bias toward the traditional school system.
2. Knowing of a single home schooling family who was not having a good experience.
3. Knowing of a single home schooling family who is having a great experience.
4. An isolated news story.
5. Personal agendas; e.g., "If you take your children out of school and became a home school mom, then we won't have time for lunch dates or tea nymore." or "If you home school like I am, we can share lessons and help each other." Or from parents..."If she quits her job, they're going to have money problems..."
Whether to home school or stick with traditional schooling is a very personal choice and one only you and your family can make. If you're like me, you are probably looking for solid information as well as personal stories that will help you make the most informed decision possible as this important matter...
I am proud to announce an e-Book that provides you with the pros and cons of home schooling, including answers to all of the questions listed above.
The author of the e-Book we are making available here, Kelly Wolf, understands how struggling with this decision feels, especially when you aren't able to find the information you need. Kelly too was bombarded with all sorts of well-intended but misinformed advice. So being the smart mum that she is, Kelly embarked on a journey of serious research.
Determined to understand home schooling and its ramifications, Kelly joined online homeschooling groups and asked lots of questions. She relentlessly dug up facts from studies on the pros and cons of home schooling, reading the complete studies, not just the statistics because as we all know statistics can lie. She read books about homeschooling, especially those written by famous education reformist John Holt. She read up on the laws that regulate home schooling.
You may be a parent who knows intuitively that Home Schooling is right for your family. Or you may be more like our author, Kelly, preferring to weight the pros and cons, not willing to dive in without understanding what's below the surface of the waters.
Home Schooling : The Pros & Cons outlines the pros and cons of Home Schooling & answers burning questions, such as:
What does it mean to home school? What are the benefits? What are the requirements for Home Schooling ? Can learning disabled children be home schooled successfully? Can home schooled children use public school resources? How do I find out about specific Home Schooling laws where I live? What kind of resources and materials do I need? What about curriculum? How will I know my child is learning? What if my child wants/needs to learn something I can't teach? How will I know if my child is keeping up? What about socialization? In my attempt to shelter my children from the negatives of an institutional school, will I be overprotecting
them Will they be able to handle jobs in the real world? Can they go to college/university? A good one?
Being the sharp researcher that our author is, Kelly found her answers. She made her decision. And seven years later, she and her daughter are still happily Home Schooling .
Seeing this Home Schooling mother's love for her child and her research and organizational skills, I asked Kelly to write this book. And I asked her to write it for those, like I was, drawn to Home Schooling but still on the fence.
So she gathered up her research and sources, found new sources, updated her notes and added to them, and put all this together in one tidy and very
helpful e-Book
As the publisher, I too am a mum. I have two beautiful, intelligent and precocious 3-year-old boys. I had been thinking ahead to their school years and considering Home Schooling . But after a few days of research (before finding our author)...
I was discouraged at the amount of time it was taking me to find just
a small fraction of what I needed.

As you may already have found out, you can spend a lot of time on a Home Schooling site and then realize you won't find the information you need because the site is dedicated to a particular Home Schooling method or lifestyle. Or the site is so biased towards or against traditional schooling that you can't get a good grasp of the both the pros and cons.
What you need a well-researched and objective view of the subject, not just someone else’s opinion.
In fact, I couldn't find one e-Book that provided the information that parents most often seek when trying to make this decision.
This is the only eBook I have found to date that gives you a well-rounded scoop on Home Schooling with all the pertinent details, and is not trying to make you pick one way or another.
