Parents vs Educators: Who Knows Your Chi...

CONNIE ALBERS
About this episode

A news outlet recently asked me to talk about the boom in homeschooling. Why is there such a surge of parents choosing to homeschool their kids? I'm a little surprised they couldn't see the answer based on the news they are reporting. My kids are grown and having kids of their own, but I'm even more passionate about homeschooling now than I was years ago when I was homeschooling my own kids. It's important that you as a parent find your voice in the midst of the noise of this struggle with educators. Who knows your child best? You? Or an educator?

 

My passion for homeschooling started because I wanted a close family and figured I could teach them the basics just as well as the public school could. My perspective on why to homeschool has changed over the years. Let's talk in this episode about finding your voice, knowing your role, and determining your priorities in this battle for the heart and future of your child.
