DD (8) misses me a lot at school and says she wishes she could stay at home. Is that by itself enough of a reason to HE?
She is happy in class but not so much at breaktime/lunchtime, I have no problems with her school or education, she progresses well and she has friends there - but now and again she just gets really sad about being away from me. I have no problem with HEing at all and it's something I'm very interested in - but I'm unsure whether this alone is enough of a reason to take on the hard work of HEing. I see benefits to both school ed and HE and I consider them equal, so it's not like I have a real yearning to do one or the other.
I suppose it may be difficult to answer as everyone on this topic is obviously more in favour of HE than school or you wouldn't all be doing it :) But knowing what you know about how hard HE can be, would you switch to HE for this reason alone?
