I liked the reason about being able to limit your child's diet, too.

Yeah, I'm glad somebody else mentioned diet.
The fact that my ds is seriously allergic to all types of nuts (including peanuts.. where the allergens are actually airborne
) has been sort of an extra motivation for me to consider homeschooling. (He's still 3, so we haven't definitely decided yet, but I have am testing the "homeschooling waters" by starting some more structured art and preschool stuff with him.) Yes, I know there are plenty of nut-related dangers in other places.. the park.. restaurants, stores, church, social gatherings, etc. BUT.. I'm always somewhere close by with an epi-pen in hand, and I'm in the habit of being more aware than a teacher who has 25 or 30 kids to think about.
