If you are considering cyber schooling your child, then it is important to take some time to see what the benefits of doing so are. There are a lot of them, many of which are covered within this article.

On one of my recent trips to be with my father, my new friend Katrina Kenison (who happens to be one of my favorite author as well-Lucky me!) wrote me an email which brought me much needed encouragement and solace . She wrote many wonderful things, and one of the most powerful was encouragement to, “offer my gift of presence and love… the rest takes care of itself.” She coined this “compassionate witnessing.” I love the idea of “compassionate witnessing” because it speaks to the need to let go of my desire to control and fix, and just surrender to the process as it unfolds.
