I'd like to find a way to do homeschooling that wouldn't require my wife to be a full-time teacher. One possibility is something like a network of families where each one is responsible for a particular subject or a particular day of the week, and they take turns. Or something like Art Robinson's curriculum (http://www.robinsoncurriculum.com) where the children are basically self-teaching, and you can do other work as long as you're around to keep the schedule/discipline. It's tough, though. I wish I could trust the Catholic schools, at least, to stick to a classical education, but they're shaped more by the culture than by tradition these days.
