A piece of advice I'm heeding on this Monday...

"... if you homeschool - your children MUST BE obedient and compliant otherwise you will not have the control you need which will cause you to "NOT" be able to guide, direct, and make them overall do their work, leading to an unsuccessful attempt which will likely end in failure - (sorry to be so blunt but this is serious business), their failure means that their future is affected negatively, closing doors of opportunity in their teen and adult life, and possibly even sending them to find "bad things" to help them cope, or even getting in with other "failed" people ending up in the "wrong crowd." One element that you have mentioned that demonstrates that homeschooling will likely not work, is that your child "won't do sports" showing that your child has "control" and in this situation the parent MUST be the one in control."

I don't homeschool, but I do have a special needs child. She's growing out of some of her delays, but it is hard to know when to push and when to cut some slack. I hope the best for you in your endeavors.
