Well I know it's the best option in some cases, speaking from personal experience. My youngest I kept home for a couple of years because she has ADHD and it helped her quite a bit until I felt she was ready for a school atmosphere. There were less distractions at home for her to deal with, but now that shes older shes learning how to deal with them on her own. So for us it was a positive thing. After she realized she had to go to public school to be on the school basketball team, it was more motivation for her to work toward getting ready for regular public school. Now she loves it!
