Sometimes I can get really frustrated with home schooling. And it’s not what you think. Home schooling itself is easy for me. I don’t have problems with teaching or disciplining or creating ideas or projects. That’s easy for me. What I find frustrating is connecting with other families who home school. Sometimes I feel like I am in a vast ocean with my family on a life boat and there is no other friendly face in sight.

It’s not that I’m looking for affirmation or advice. I don’t really need that. I just miss the real connections. I do get tired of the weird looks I get from people who think home schoolers are complete nutters. I just want some real community. I’ve tried joining social networking groups and stuff… but they just seem to be filled with whining and complaining. And I don’t want that.

So… if anyone has any ideas on how to connect with other home schoolers… I’m all ears! Let me hear about it. Home schooling is supposed to be the fasted growing area of child education. So, what is everyone doing?

And remember… FREE is good.
