I really struggle with what type of family my husband wants to be and how to conform to that. He likes me at home full time with our daughter. I'm at home full-time and she is in school 2 full days a week. I have really gone back and forth with the idea of homeschooling, but I think my husband favors her being in school. I'm sure he has his reasons. I just don't know what they are yet. I have a lot of concern about school today and the culture we live in and I feel like we could have more control over my daughter's sphere of influence at home. I feel like she is going to be presented with things at a very young age that she won't be ready to process quite yet. I feel like she could get a solid grounding if we kept her at home for awhile so that when approached with certain situations outside of home she will have developed a solid foundation for who she is and won't be as easily swayed. I would love for us to take the path less traveled and allow an overpass for some of the issues that come along with being in school during adolescence and such. My husband might think she will become a stronger person for having gone to school rather than being at home. I'm not so convinced...............

My husband and I believe our kids should be involved in extra curricular activities. As they get older we feel they need constructive ways to channel their energy. And they need to get away from the constant lure of the Ipad. This is a big challenge for today's generation and you have to be proactive, especially with your children. Anyway, my daughter wa...
