I don't understand that attitude, either... I loved homeschooling and I feel like the extra years I got to have with my children were a blessing and a privilege. I love summer and I'm sad when school starts and the house is empty again. My kids are in high school now, and I'm just realizing they'll be gone off on their own lives in just a few short years! :shock: I don't know how I'll manage. But then again... I've never really understood women who're happy when their husbands disappear on business trips, or who like to get away from their husbands, either. I'm lonely whenever my man is gone. I don't sleep well, and my whole life gets put on hold while I'm waiting for him to come home. I also seem to collect house guests... Good thing we've got two guest bedrooms! So I guess I'm just a family-oriented person. I'm not a self-sufficient loner.
