Questions & Answers for families thinking of joining

Should I pull her out of school now? - My 11 year old daughter is in the last leg of 6th grade, there are only about 8 weeks left in the school year, but she has Trich..she pulls her hair to the point of being bald in some spots during the school year, and the problem disappears over summer.

How does it work at your house? - So do any of you actually get "you" time? I'm thinking about all the time I have now when the kids are in school. All the errands I run, the Dr appointments etc... My hubby works a lot at night, we have a property management company and meetings usually start around 6:00 - 7:00 and end around 8:00- 9:00. I'll be the one schooling the kids. I also take them to TKD 3 times per week, cook dinner, clean house, laundry, shopping,get them ready for bed. Pretty much I do everything. Do any of you have the same situation? Do you ever get annoyed there isn't any time left for you? - Read More
