Ive homeachooled for over 12 years. At first its a challenge, getting organized, choosing curriculum but once you get the hang of it, it gets easier.
I never had a day where it took more than 5 hours to complete the days lessons including "homework".
There are many choices of curriculums. Some are video classrooms, some are designed for you to be teacher with detailed instructions of how to do it. If you are concerned about having to teach, dont be. There are plenty of curriculum with video teachers.
We always used Khan Academy for math. My oldest just graduated college with a math degree and I never taught him math beyond 3rd grade. He learned it from all from Khan Academy and its all free. Look at it if you get a chance. They have every subject you need from elementary to college including SAT prep.
Your child will have to become a self learner and that makes them an independent thinker. They will not have the influence of liberal teachers so theres no indoctrination.
Many homeschool programs have extracurricular activities like sports, academic clubs, etc. Our program has over 1500 kids and has every extracurricular activity public schools have so kids have an active social life.
Neither of my kids have been rebellious teens and I atrribubte that to being mostly influenced by parents rather than other kids.
I would recommend homeschooling to every parent. You will be in control of what they are learning and you will have a stronger bond with your kids.
