I am interested in homeschooling my twin 6 year old girls, and I am looking for feedback. My reasons are over the last 4 years (head start, pre-k, kindergarten, and now first grade) I have noticed unacceptable behavior on their behalf in school. They will visit family and friends and be okay. When they go to school I am constantly getting calls, notes, and other reports on their unacceptable behavior. Extreme tantrums, excessive crying, not following directions are the major ones that I hear about the most. I discipline in several ways time outs, loss of privaleges, spankings and nothing is catching to keep a positive behavior at school. When they are with me they are fine. Not perfect angels, but normal six year olds. I am debating on letting them do part-time homeschool with the idea that slowly easing them into public school might help them with the transition. I am really at my ropes end with ideas.
