People have it SO stuck in their heads that kids NEED to be around their peers in order to learn to socialize. Annoys me to no end! ;) The whole socialization myth is one of my biggest anti-homeschooling pet peeves!

Thanks for a great reminder. I haven't started doing anything with Bella at home (3 years) but I have so many friends starting their kids who are the same age in preschool type programs, etc. I think it's crazy to start kids so early for anything. They are still babies at that age. Have a great Mother's Day! I couldn’t agree more. Thanks for a great reminder.

Do I really want the primary influencers of my child to be children his own age, children I don't even get to choose? No way. I totally agree with you.
