muimui,
haha, yes, this employer is really bad but still exists. Guess why the company would close in SF cos' it cannot make any money yet. It has been opened since 2004 in SF, a Chinese newspaper originated in HK, do you get a cue what it's ?
Alison,
Homeschooling may or may not work. My hubby has a friend whose wife has homeschooled her 2 kids at home until high school. Then, she died of cancer. Her son is really smart but he cannot cope with challenge from the outside world. My hubby gave him his cousin's phone # who is a professor in university and this young man could not even make a call to talk to my hubby's cousin. Homeschooling lacks the chance of socialization for the kids. Although I also want to take care of my kids, teach them by myself, the reality is that I need to earn money so that my kids can have a better quality of living and chance to go for further study financially. Also, stay at home mom also has her own issues. My sister is a full-time mom and her son is really good but she always feel left-out and so bored when the son is at school. Especially, when we reach a certain age, finding a good job is difficult. If we stop now and try to get one some years later, that mean we have to restart later on. I sometimes feel guilty that I leave my son to my mom and I cannot teach him in my way (you know, even your mom may not follow your ways) but what can I do?
