I am definitely loving the flexibility as well. Both of my kids struggle in a typical sit-down, shut-up public school setting. My son especially, as he has high-functioning autism and being stuck in a noisy, confusing classroom of 35+ kids was putting him on edge daily. Public school was consistently failing my children. When we moved out of state, I figured we could give it a try before I found full-time work (I had a corporate job prior). It's not been very smooth, and I'm not saying I haven't had my doubts, but so far, so good!
