For People Who Do Home-Schooling; How Long Does It Last?

[batflyz2]

I know that for each family it is different but I wanted to know what the majority case for students that are home-schooled.

Are more students:
a) home-schooled their entire life and have never set foot in the school system at all?
b) enter school and for some reason or another later on decide to be home-schooled?
c) only home-schooled for a certain period of time and may enter a school (such as high school or college) later on?

All of the above.
In my family for example, I home-schooled completely through from K-12.
My oldest sister went to school from k-gr4 and home-schooled from grade 5 until graduation. My older brother went to school from k-gr.2 and home-schooled from grade 3-10 and then completed high school in a public school.
My younger brother home-schooled from k-gr.10 and completed high school in the public system.

Nearly all of us went on to complete further education. I'm currently a 4th year university student in Elementary Education, my oldest brother is an engineer and my younger brother manages a framing company, as a Journeyman framer.

So yes, it really depends on the individual and the circumstances.
