• Answer:

  Actually you are only 15yrs old. You don't have a daughter. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AkUzgRLVHcgqGPYiLP1QIsjsy6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20120401133305AAeoiFV First off you need to look over the laws of homeschooling in Canada. Second homeschooling is not the same as online school. You need to know the real meaning of homeschooling. This is why you haven't found anything in the past 2 days. Homeschooling is a way of life. Not just learning at home. Homeschooling is something parents HAVE to be a part of. True homeschooling is just that - School is at home. Teachers are your parents. The main reason to homeschool is to get out of the traditional school system. Real homeschooling you have full control over your education. You have the say in what you learn, how you learn and when you learn it. You do not have to follow a set of lessons required from your local school. You learn the way you want. You are self learning. If you sign up to some free public school online learning thing then you are just following the same thing you were learning at school. No different from at all. You still have set rules and you are still in control of the state. I teach my kids at home. I design the lessons, the schedule, find what will help my kids learn, if they don't understand or get bored with something we together find something new that will work for them. We interact with other homeschooling families and at times kind of have classes together. That is real homeschooling, not getting up and walking over to a computer for class. That is called ONLINE LEARNING or DISTANT LEARNING.
