When U.S. Public School is Unavoidable

I believe U.S. public (i.e., government) schools today should be avoided, with whatever extreme family effort is necessary, and home-schooling is the only way to go.Unfortunately, many parents have to struggle under less than ideal conditions today.If a public school indoctrination is temporary or a tragic situation has burdened the family with only one parent, for example, then this book would be of great value in dealing with and making the most of the public school alternative.With real-life family situations and actual cases, the book offers valuable practical advice for a supportive home environment for a child's educational experience. Includes a chapter on "special" children: those with learning difficulties, the gifted, and bilingual education.
