Being Overprotective

Sometimes people think that I am being overprotective by homeschooling my kids. I've always felt that while a child is developing his/her identity, that he should be in a nurturing enviroment. Once he has a solid identity, let him be tested. I saw too many times as a counselor at the elementary school one leader and a group of followers, who did whatever the leader did or said. They had no identity, so they looked for a leader. When my kids are young, I want Todd and I to be the major influences in their life so they can have a strong foundation.
