Why are homeschool lifepacs treated the same as teacher editions ? The answer I am given is because they have an answer key. HMMM. So do workbooks by Magraw-Hill and Spectrum, to name a few. Really when it comes right down to it, everything that is used or purchased in the form of curriculum for homeschool families HAS AN ANSWER KEY! Why, so that the parent can quickly grade "little junior's" assignments without having to read everything first! I would think that it would be obvious to anyone with a clear thought in their head that someone who is looking to buy or sell a lifepac set is A GROWNUP who wants material for their child to learn at home! Seems like their is more pressure placed on those selling homeschool material than is fair. Just my thoughts.

Good morning, I am coming in on this conversation a little late but I have had experience using the lifepacs and also selling them here on ebay. the current individual lifepac workbooks do not have an answer key, only the teacher edition but when selling the boxed set I always put in my remarks workbooks only, TE is not available and for any questions to have the bidder contact me. I have also posted TE when part of a set as a bonus book. I agree with you it is ridiculous that a home educator cannot have access to these materials here on ebay when they are sold widely throughout the internet.

Have a great day.
