My little sponge.
This was a great discussion. Thanks to all who commented. Everyone has their own experiences. I chose Aaron and Heather for that very reason. I was confident that their experiences shaped their opinions and that their opinions on this subject were strong.
Despite all these different experiences and different opinions on this important decision we can all agree on this:
Any kind of learning that your child participates in away from your home must be supplemented with extra learning from parents or guardians. And that it is also important that kids who are homeschooled should be encouraged to socialize outside of the home with kids their age. Both the supplemental learning and socialization can help your child become a well rounded person.
My special thanks go to Aaron and Heather for participating in this debate. I hope they continue to participate in further discussions on Your Homeroom.

Where would I locate the source of the quoted passage in this post?
Hey Amy. Sorry for the confusion. This quote is just my understanding of the two articles. I guess I should have used bullets instead of just indenting.
Thanks for coming by and leaving some great comments.
Wow, Heather & Aaron did a fantastic job writing about these topics. They are both very talented. Thanks for the insight in these articles!!
