Family Members Want My Help

We have been homeschooling for some years now. At first our family and friends thought we were CRAZY to want to teach our children. But, after a few years things are different now. Others want our help and some of our friends have decided to teach at home too. But, the most shocking thing has been that so many of our relatives now want ME to teach their children for them.

I graciously refuse but offer to help them get started if they are willing to teach their own children at home. So far, none have taken me up on my offer to help but just wish that their children could be with our family rather than attend their public or private schools.

I am sure this is still progress although I wish they really could understand that they can teach their own children and don't have to try to get me to do it for them.
