　　The teen years can be the most exciting time in your child’s
life. He or she is becoming an independent young adult and
beginning to make decisions for the future. Yet growing concern
about the negative social pressures, safety, and efficiency of our
traditional high schools has prompted many parents just like you to
teach their teenagers at home. With Homeschooling: The Teen Years
as your guide, you’ll discover it’s not as daunting a task as
you’ve been led to believe. Using real-life stories from dozens of
families, this book reveals the secrets of making homeschooling
work for you and your teen. You’ll discover how to:
　　?Work with your teen to create a unique, individual learning
experience
　　?Make coursework interesting, challenging, and fun
　　?Allow your teen to discover the best vocational path, including
selecting a college
　　?Know when your teen has “completed” high school
　　?And much more!
　　”Contains three of the most helpful sentences I’ve ever read on
the question of homeschooling: ‘Just start.’ ‘You will make
mistakes.’ ‘No big deal.’ What excellent advice! One of the most
thoroughly helpful books I’ve read in years. If you’re
homeschooling a teenager you’ll want—and need—this outstanding
book!” — Helen Hegener, managing editor of Home Education
Magazine
　　”Am I crazy? Homeschool my teen? But how do I do it, when should
I do it, where do I find information, and is this really a good
choice? If this sounds like you, stop shopping and start reading.
This book provides insights and solutions to questions from A to Z.
Highly recommended!” — Cindy Stanley, sponsor of the Homeschooling
for Everyone Conferences
　　”Lots of practical tips, examples, and help. I loved the
smorgasbord of ideas from other homeschooling parents of teens,
showing the wide range of ways to learn and excel.” — Judith Waite
