Hello Luella,
Thanks again for your usual hard work in preparing another featured forum
A while ago now I actively promoted Doris' book as I thought that she had a valid viewpoint to put forward.

Doris and myself took a lot of attacks, her for her views and me for promoting.
I did the right thing and ordered the book through its ISBN number here in the UK.
I was frankly puzzled and disappointed.
When I tried to read the book I could not understand how it came to be published in its present form(even if it was private publisher). The grammatical errors, spelling and lack of constructive flow made it virtually impossible to follow.
As an example of a simple, poor unresourced homeschooling it has a merit but Doris should have got help in the areas of presentation and would have been better advised had she asked an educator or author to add an introduction.
Doris.
Firstly, forgive my negative appraisal of your book.
As I have stated I found it, in it's present form, completely unreadable and lacking in message.
YOU HAVE valid points to make, but, your lack of knowledge as to the marketplace and to its potential for good as a message, is sadly lacking in book presentation.
This is probably the first critical posting that I have ever done and I hope that this doesnt hurt your pride too much.
Doris, if you have a valid point and want to help others to understand then do one of two things:
1) Get help in presenting your facts
2) Understand that the very education that you are being critical of, is hindering your message.
If you continue to publish your work "as it is" without help, then you can expect only disappointment.
I have huge respect for your needs and would love to help you , but, you need to rethink your strategies first. The courage of your convictions is clear and that I respect but your presentation makes you appear to be a complainer. Not your intention I'm sure.
with loving intentions,
Roger
