toward you? I have homeschooled my son for the past 7 years because he had some reading difficulties when he was very young. We quickly got past that and continued homeschooling (by his choice). This child is one that has to be constantly pushed when it comes to academics. He's just not all that interested; it's not due to any disability. I even gave him the choice to be put in a private school when he entered high school. He said no, that he liked homeschooling and enjoyed the co-ops we had been involved in. Today, he said some very harsh things to me. He said that he couldn't separate mom and teacher and that all I thought about was academics. Well, considering his education is on my shoulders and he can be quite lazy, I have to constantly stay after him about his studies. I feel like I have devoted my all to this child, trying to give him a heads up and an opportunity. I never forced homeschooling on him and he still says he doesn't want to go to school, but he seems so resentful toward me. Sometimes, I wonder if this was the right choice? Should I have just let him fail and struggle through the school he was in? Should I not care if he is educated or not? Have any of you gone through this? This really came "out of the blue" today. I don't know what this stems from. I am very depressed and saddened. I needs words of encouragement and prayer. Thanks.
