Stay-at-home dad refuses to homeschool his 6-year-old daughter because she's failing 1st grade math, despite his wife's insistence: 'I want her to have a “normal” childhood'

• The dad in this story does not want to homeschool his daughter. His wife is nervous that her teacher will hold her back because she's struggling in math, and this teacher has been known to hold students back before. However, he doesn't think that's a good enough reason to homeschool, mainly because the responsibility of teaching will fall on him. He already has a 2-year-old to care for, and he doesn't think he's qualified to be a teacher, given his disposition.
