Homeschooling!!!
Quote From: princess1teresa's reasons for homeschooling (as she said on the show) are the reason so many home schooling families have so many problems with family and friends. we are a homeschool family for the past 4 years, and eveyone always has the same first thought, "what about socialization?" we do not keep our son locked away for 8 hours a day with nobody but his dad and myself around. we homeschool because we believe it gives our son the best possible education. he is in many more social activities than when he was in the public school system and is learning valuable life lessons. next month he is going to south america with our church's youth group on a mission trip. i know teresa loves her daughter and only wants what is best for her, but in the end, a parent's job if they have done their job well, is to become obsolete. Ashlee does all the activities that I can put her into in regards to homeschooling. She went to Catalina for 3 days with her class, she was in a play that took over 3 months to do, so yes I allow her to do as much stuff possible with the program I have her in. The producers knew all that and they choose to not use it. If you noticed when Dr. Phil asked me about activites I started to answer him and then he interupted me. So I did not want to give Homeschooling a bad name. My daughter has gotten the best education through both programs she has been in.
