Extractions: General links There are over twenty thousand families in the UK whose children are home educated, and at least a million in the USA. One family can only provide one perspective on home education. Every child is unique, every parent has a different background, and each situation provides different opportunities for learning. There are thousands of homeschooling web sites based in the USA, and a few elsewhere in the world. I have selected some which had family appeal and other interest rather than being just a list of links to resources. So have a look at some of the following sites, which introduce other home educating families and their own unique perspectives on home education - as well as a wide variety of other interests. The Underhill Family web site : A web site which features motorbike building and a rabbit, as well as some useful reviews of software and information about home education, particularly details of activities in the West Midlands. The Haylett Virtual Residence : A Christian family site, full of useful information about home education in the UK, with several articles about Christian issues related to relationships, families and education.
