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?
