I have 2 children and we've homeschooled them most of middle and high school.  Do you have any children?
I do not, but the fact you are willing to homeschool yours give me the impression you are a good parent!  Is it hard?
Well, we try our best and pray the rest sorts itself out.  Yes, there are hard days and easier days, but overall I wouldn't change anything about it.
Do you ever get any harassment by your state?  I know there is a lot of state regulations and they can be troublesome.
I've never had that issue, but I've heard of others that have.  We belong to HSLDA and they are a great organization to belong to if anyone ever causes a problem in regards to homeschooling.  There are regulations that we have to adhere to, but if you do that they pretty much leave you alone.
I do find the topic of homeschooling interesting.  In Germany it is completely outlawed but the US, Canada and the UK it is allowed.
It's outlawed in Germany?  That is interesting - are there other places it is outlawed?
I believe Greece is another country it is banned and it is being threatened in Kenya as well.
Wow - that is really interesting.  I wonder what their reasonings behind outlawing it are - I know for the US there are A LOT of resources, perhaps these other countries do not have the resources to help the parents provide a good education..
Maybe but Germany in particular does not suffer from lack of resources.  Since well-being is such a hot topic in psychology, maybe they question the well-being of the child.
