Mrs. Prince knows what she's talking about. She's been homeschooling for over 10 years and has been a staunch advocate even longer. Prince says, "When you homeschool, you remain your child's primary influence. This gives you incredible opportunities every single day to model behavior, to teach them the values your family holds dear, and to keep them safe from bullies, alcohol, and drugs. But, most of all, it gives them wonderful gifts. Gifts of your time and attention, and the wonderful gift of a superior education!"
What's more, Prince believes that as a parent you begin homeschooling or educating your children the minute they are born. "From the moment your child enters this world, you're training them. Whether it is by consciously teaching them the ABC song, or by unconsciously modeling behavior, you are their primary teacher."

According to a recent article in Time.com, the average homeschooler's SAT score is 1100, 80 points higher than the average score for the general population. Analysts estimate there are over 2 million children homeschooled in the United States this
