On the basis, that some consideration is being given to my concerns, I’m hereby calling a truce.
Terri W. has begun a new yahoogroup that some of our readers may be interested in.

This list is not moderated (except for new members) and all posts are
public.
Home Based Learning Support is a national email list supporting
family choice in learning, and promoting discussion, interest,
evaluation, resources and networking for all types of family led
learning options like homeschooling, virtual schools, and private and
public school programs that provide home-based learning options.
We believe education requires accountability first and foremost to
the student – and a student who is enjoying learning in a supportive,
engaging, exciting and flexible environment has the greatest
opportunity to become an involved citizen and a lifelong learner.
This list is *not* for deciding the merits or lack thereof, of others
choices or interests, but for learning from one another and making
our own choices. This list is guided by a single Rule of Civility,
asking that kindness, compassion and understanding be honored by all,
for all.

Please feel free to share this with others, and to invite families
you know who may be using home based learning options and might
benefit from such a forum.
Thanks for you patience while I’ve figured things out, and thanks for
helping me figure them out.
