 Wow! Way to go on the ACT score!
Our older daughter does Liberty online and likes it so far.  We didn't start homeschooling until halfway through our kids. We have 3 left at home homeschooling. I'm not overly pro college, but for certain things it's necessary... we'll see what happens. My next oldest is only15, so we have a lil bit... but then again, time flies! Thanks for sharing!

 I agree on college.  I've told people for a while that kids shouldn't go to college unless they know why they need college for their chosen career and have verified that the time and money are worth any benefit.  Obviously some careers require it, but most do not.

I knew there were issues with colleges being woke and not being as rigorous as when I was in college, but when we actually started looking, it was almost impossible to find a decent college.

Liberty University has been a wonderful blessing, but it is almost impossible for us to get between Lynchburg, VA, and where we live.  Originally I had told my son I wanted him to pick a college that was within a one day's drive from home because the world was getting so messed up.  It could be a very long day's drive if necessary.  We didn't find a single college we liked in that range, so he is at Liberty.
