I <em>can</em> vaguely imagine what my life would be like if I wasn't homeschooling Jonny and I think life in general would be more easily managed. That could bring with it more peace and less stress. Sounds nice! So, I think it really boils down to the fact that I <em>want</em> to homeschool my kids. So <em>for me</em> the benefits do outweigh the sacrifice, because that's how much I want to do it. I am personally willing to give up a more easily managed life and time to do the stuff I want to do, in order to be with my kids more and learn with them. I am only making this statement for me. I would never apply this to another family. I wanted to add a note about the “benefits outweigh[ing] the sacrifice” part.
