Mysterious Teaching

Insights behind the perils of being a teacher

Home schooled kids serviced by pros?

There is a movement afoot that people who homeschool their children MUST have certification.  I mean...they must be certified teachers.  You can't be just a mom who decides she is going to keep her kids home because she is mad at the schools.  You now have to be a certified teacher and legal in the state in order to teach your kids at home.

Man, I would NEVER have taught my own kids at home.  It was hard enough being a Mom!  I can't imagine being their teacher too.  You would have to be qualified in every subject and at every grade level to do it.  Algebra would put a stop to me.  I could probably keep up in the rest of the areas, but not Math.  And to NOT get paid for doing all that work after I was certified??? I THINK NOT!

What do you think about making home school parents get their teaching credentials?
