Adam Lane Smith & Sarah Dawn Moore
About this episode

🎙️ In this eye-opening episode of I Wish You Knew, Adam Lane Smith, the attachment specialist, and Claire Denault, a 2nd-generation homeschool mom, dive into the controversial topic of public schooling vs. homeschooling.

 

From the emotional toll of standardized education to the psychological impact of traditional schooling, Claire and Adam reveal why homeschooling might just be the solution to a broken system. They discuss the trauma children face from being forced into one-size-fits-all education models, and why many kids are leaving school with damaged self-esteem, unmet needs, and a lack of emotional security.
