Boy, am I responding to and old post.

First, the biggest falacy about homeschooling is the lack of socialization. Secondly, I personally have shunned the local homeschooling group. It was no different interaction than public schooling, at least in our area.

I maintained my Christianity in public schools also but most of my friends did not and I strayed several times KNOWING I was doing something God didn't want me to do.

Now, about homeschooling foster kids, we are adopting kids from New York and the case worker there said that as an agency, the State of New York is beginning to advocate for homeschoolers because the find that there is a better bonding and less stress on the kids. We are fostering to adopt and that might be different but you might want to search on line maybe starting with New York so see if any agencies have info on it. California would be another place I would look.

Good luck
