Denise's research and recommendations will save families precious time." - Carol Becker, Home School Legal Defense Association High School Educational Consultant, Team Leader "This book is a must if you are homeschooling your high schooler who is, as the title says, 'headed for college.' We found it an empowering and encouraging resource. It may very well be the most important college prep book you buy." - Kathy Gelzer, The Old Schoolhouse® Magazine, LLC "What sets this book apart from some others on the same topic is the extensive coverage on planning for those aiming for highly competitive colleges since that was the route Denise's daughter and son both selected. Even though that information is included, those not aiming that high can skip sections that are irrelevant to them and still have everything they need....I very much appreciate the fact that this book is based on both research and experience." - Cathy Duffy, cathyduffyreviews.com

This intimate, eminently practical memoir of a successful homeschooled family of six children illuminates today’s most exciting choice in education, and shows how it works from cradle to college. What is it that homeschoolers do that the public schools can’t or won’t? There are at least as many answers as there are studies. But nothing can capture the homeschooling experience in all its richness like the story of a real family that homeschools its children in middleclass America. Homeschooling: A Family’s Journey is the perfect book for those millions of Americans who may know someone who homeschools, who may have read about it, thought about it, and wondered whether homeschooling is right for them. Sharing the concerns of committed parents everywhere, authors Gregory and Martine Millman are consistently practical, informed, caring, and no-nonsense in their approach. They pay special attention to homeschooling and college, the economics of home-learning, and how a parent can really handle a child’s full education. Homeschooling opens a window on an exciting, important way of education—and, even more, a way of life—that can make all the difference in your family’s world.

Although the percentage of homeschooled U.S. students is 2% and growing, widespread misconceptions persist. Neighbors and relatives wonder if homeschoolers will be properly socialized and learn to live in the real world, teachers and administrators doubt that quality education can be achieved, and parents fear that homeschooling would be too hard. This book explains why homeschooling can be a great path for socializing a child and for excelling academically in a 21st century world, why homeschooling is easier than most people think, and how homeschooling can lead to the tranquil close family life many people seek. The book is written in a rational non-confrontational manner, ideally suited for homeschoolers to give to family and friends to inform them of the rationale for choosing this path of raising a child. It is also well-suited for teachers, administrators, journalists, and government officials who wish to learn more about this important educational approach.
