Homeschooling is full-time parenting and it is hard because parenting is hard. It requires us to give more of ourselves than is convenient. Anxious parents, more than ever before, are seeing homeschooling as a good option, but many continue to cling to old excuses to hide from the calling.
Homeschooling can grow sturdy kids and ripen parents to excellence… The risk of leaving things to the “professionals” who instruct kids via government mandates and cultural fads far outweighs the risks of taking on all of parenting… Break the ease of indifference, the comfort of distraction, and deny the insinuation of incompetence without professional oversight. Learn and grow alongside your kids and for your kids.
Homeschool planners are a great tool to help parents stay organized and inspire self-driven learning in older kids. Here’s how to get started, and some common pitfalls to avoid.
Come away from Great Homeschool Conventions reassured of your homeschool choice and with the resources, connections, and resolve for individualized success.
You are completely inadequate to homeschool, according to the world. Don’t be intimidated. Your natural ability to instruct your kids along with your will to succeed, and the simplicity to do so, cannot be reproduced in mass. And that is intimidating to the system. And your authority and mandate to homeschool comes from higher power.
