Answer 0108: I would like to know how common it is for parents to take a child out of school when he or she is 12 and is in middle school?
Parents
are transferring their children out of public schools and into homeschooling
(which in Indiana is the same as a private school) all the time, and at all
ages! Many used to wait until the end of a semester or school year, but lately
it seems even that practice is changing. Transferring your child to another
appropriate method of education should be done as soon as the parent determines
it's needed. After all, YOU are the one in charge, and only YOU know what is
the best for your child. If a public school isn't working now... why wait until
later?
