It is a tragedy that is impossible to comprehend, and it could have happened anywhere, I think, -- in the mall, in the park, at the camp...
But on the subject of homeschooling -- it is really a very personal choice. I am leaning very heavily towards homeschooling, incorporating different other activities, -- ie dance classes, music classes, sports, etc Also I might determine it on child to child and even year to year basis. Our circumstances and even the circumstances around us might be different at different times, so I am leaving it open to decide on those things and to be fluid
My husband is open to homeschooling, he was home-schooled himself. But he is also realistic, that at times we might have to utilize school system to some extend... I wish I knew the answer to your question, but I think there is no black and white answer there.
