Ha Ha, Brooke! It's funny you brought the wrist slapping up ... there was just a very long, and actually quite interesting, thread about this this past week on homeschool-ca. The gist of the discussion was that all of what came up on the list reflected people's reality in living life with their
children, and the learning that takes place with the whole mess of it. The wrist slapping turned into a wonderful welcome to a new subscriber!

(I actually subscribe to the digest, so for me the list is pretty manageable.)

I have heard of the wonderful support for hs in the Kootenays (Nelson, in particular). Glad you have that there.

Tina.
