I was having a chat with a lady the other day and happened to mention that I home-schooled my girls. To which she replied "Have you met Lou, the lady in charge of montitering home-educators for the LA"?
Now I have always taken the view that I would not call up the social services and ask them to come around to check on my parenting abilities. So why would I call the LA and ask them to check on my teaching abilities. After all I have done fine for the first 5 years of my girls lives, why the need for it now?
Anyway - With all the whoo-haa over the proposed new legislation it just got me thinking. Am I the only one currently living under the radar? Or are there more of us out there. And if your're not known is it for similer reasons to my own or other?
No agenda behind this thread other then to satisfy my own curiosity.
Thanx
