We started with a state level virtual school when Covid hit for our child. We ended up switching to a homeschool track to allow her to take more classes. Also, she did not want to return to brick and mortar school. (We discussed the decision as a family). She is in middle school and has completed several high school classes on track to have her Associate degree by the time she would finish high school.
We also did the state’s prepaid program for a 4-year degree. So we’ve always had that path in mind.
It works for us, but primarily due to the effort and time my wife can dedicate to being Mom, teacher, and every other hat she wears. She also has a degree in early childhood education giving us a bit of an advantage here.
I work remotely and can help intermittently, but not as consistently.
If you are able to re-learn courses through high-school and be able to help your child on their learning path it can work very well. My wife and I both have college degrees, and some classes involve relearning concepts differently than how we learned the concept. It will require a lot more effort on your side of things.
Find some of the schooling groups in your area, these are great to get help as sometimes groups share curriculum other times it’s about the social engagement the kids need by not being in school.
It’s great if it works for your situation, but there’s a lot to consider what’s best for you and your family.
My trick is to try to separate “winnings” from the amount planned for gambling. I look at it as how much to spend for time of entertainment. The idea would be to try to only lose the original 20SEK you started with and try to move the over 40SEK into the other pants pocket.
It’s not always easy, and it’s harder with the stupid electronic cards that I’m sure track your profitability.
