I came back to change this. Realized it was in regards to CC and not all of homeschooling.

Yes, we loved CC for the early years, up until CH A + B. I was a tutor, director, trainer, etc. Our community was incredible. We had a major move during our children's middle school years and the community we became a part of wasn't quite the same. Then, we had the opportunity to help build/grow a co-op solely for middle school + high school homeschoolers, which aligned more with where we were headed academically.

Yep!

I mean, there were some days that seemed like an ETERNITY, but it really does go by super quickly (like all childhood.)

Honestly, icing on the cake was seeing how they responded to Covid. My son was a senior that year (2020). Early in March of '20, he was independently running flu statistics from Italian medical journals through online translators so that he could see how past flu seasons affected the older Italian population.
