This is really interesting, and lovely to read. Thank you for sharing it. :-)

I'm getting very passionate at the moment about practical skills, and increasingly angry at the way in which they were "taught" at my schools, especially at secondary level. It was absolutely dire, and incredibly discouraging.

My Dad had very little interest in teaching me things, and my Mum had none at all, so home schooling would not have been a solution in my case. But it has made me rather more aware of how many gaps in my education there would be if my school had had similar failings in other areas - or just if I'd found everything as hard as I found motor control. And thus just how useful homeschooling can be, when everything works well for it. :-)
