There's really no special reason for the idea other than my cousin, who is an educator by profession homeschooled her three n-- two of which started college courses at 15, the oldest of whom just started his Junior year majoring in physics in a 4-year a college and he's only 18. Seems like she really gave them a headstart on life and she's willing to share her expertise with us.
The 13yo is all for the idea. Just wondering if anyone has successfully taken a kid already in middle school out of school and been successful with homeschool.
