Every sign of defiance against the established order is not gonna be taken lightly by the centralized government.
But on the bright side, homeschooling gives you the chance to help form your kids into truly exceptional individuals, since public school only breeds more sheep. CPS should be off your back provided you certify them with official titles(at least in my country homeschooling is allowed provided you pass mid term and final term exams at state schools, I bet in yours too).
I would have loved if my own parents took the time for it when I was a kid!
Also, remember to help them socialize with other kids, social insertion is also a big part of a kids learning process.
I congratulate you on your dedication and courage!
Thanks for your support on my endeavor, it means a lot! So far nobody has been on my back about it, so that's nice. In our state there's actually a lot of freedom regarding homeschooling. I just go to the department of public instruction website, enter in the number of kids and their grades, and agree to give the children 825 hours of instruction in the basics (math, science, language arts, ect.) per year. No tests, follow ups, or certifications. Some states are more strict, and every now and then the media reports on a horrible news story of homeschooling gone wrong, then people call for stricter laws, but here in Wisconsin homeschoolers fought hard for this freedom. Thanks for your comment! :D
