The teen years are when many homeschooling parents start to question or abandon their efforts. It's a precarious time, with challenging academics, pressing social issues, and the prospect of college looming. Parents can now breathe easy: this guide calms the teen-time jitters and even offers hope to those just turning to homeschooling now that their child is about to enter high school.

This book is a special double-issue of the Peabody Journal of Education (Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tennessee) on home schooling is a unique book. It covers: Socialization, Academic achievement, History of home schooling, Population growth of the educational alternative, Arguments for home schooling, Arguments against home schooling.

This is a great book. It is divided into well thought out paragraphs. It is not so much a how to book, but rather a cheerleader book. It provides the positives of homeschooling. It discusses in a very factual manner the statistics and the studies and provides some information about the lack of information the studies do show.
