“Home-schooling single mothers may find in this book resources to avoid the shame often associated with their situation. Researchers will find four detailed life stories that intricately intertwine the motivations and sociological factors explaining the decision to homeschool. Policy makers could read how some mothers feel compelled to homeschool by a public system that fails to provide acceptable solutions, but also that homeschooling can contrastively be experienced by seemingly disadvantaged mothers as a positive choice.” (Philippe Bongrand, Educational Review, Vol. 74 (3), 2022)
