Everyone should use MY homeschool curriculum!

On occasion someone, somewhere takes the words out of my mouth and all I can do is an emphatic point and nod.

Each family is unique, and each child in that family is unique. There is no one method or one way that will work for every family, or even for every child within the family. I believe that flexibility is the key. Be open to switch curriculums or methods even mid year. If you find yourself needing a change in what you're doing or using, talk to your friends, borrow their curriculum to try for a few days, listen to their views, search the internet. Then make your own choice.

Now I do promote the curriuculum my kid uses, and I believe in it, but do I tell folks it is the only way to go? Noooooo..

But... I do point out that it can be used in different ways for different kids.... for a kid who wants to do everything online it is a full online interactive curriculum. For the book learner who wants to "play" from time to time, it is great... and it is also a great summer review tool or remedial reading program.

So if someone is curious about it, why not recommend it... they won't know if it works until they try it out... and there is a trial period!
