We couldn't find a school that could manage his behaviour so I made the decision to Home School him - something that is very rare in the UK.<br />I have never regretted my decision - my son is now 19 and doing really well at College studying Computer Science so I feel I did a good job of being a SAHM and Home Schooling.<br />What you say is very true, I always made time for myself and have a very supportive husband. I am still a SAHM, I now look after my 89 year old Mother who moved in with us 3 years ago. I do find peoples attitudes rather annoying sometimes, they seem to feel sure I should be bored and fed up and that my life is not fulfilling because what I do is not important like a having a job and going out to work - I think being a mother and carer is far more important than going to work.<br />I will look forward to "Fun Fold Friday", I have a Z-fold card scheduled on my bog tomorrow - part of a commission for Simply Cards & Papercraft - I was really chuffed to be asked to do a Masterclass for the magazine.<br />Pauline - <a href="https://craftingwithcotnob.blogspot.co.uk/" rel="nofollow"> Crafting with Cotnob </a><br />xcotnobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03953842419539845175noreply@blogger.com
