I have a toddler (2yrs), and I'm someone who is very concerned with the quality of education accessible to me/my kid and who's toyed with the idea of homeschooling. My biggest concern is the amount of time it requires. I think that effective homeschooling on limited time relies on the child spending large periods of time self-studying. At this stage due to his young age I don't yet know if he has the kind of personality/interest.
Would someone here share numbers? How many hours do you work a day, how many hours do you spend homeschooling your kid, and how many hours does your kid spend by themselves studying?
From my friends, who homeschool their two children, it's about 2-3 hours per day. Sometimes more if they are curious, sometimes zero, because there are others more important things to do.
