I had felt confident but then that awful doubt monster was creeping in. I was beginning to think well maybe I should just buy a boxed curriculum to make sure I was doing “enough”. I was really having a bit of confusion and insecurity take over but then I read this, and you reminded me that I’m doing just fine. Homeschool is NOT school at home, so hard to shake the programming I didn’t know I had.
Thank you again for sharing just the words I needed to read at this moment.

Hi Julia! I’d encourage you to join some popular homeschooling groups on Facebook and ask your questions there so you can get a wider range of responses. Wishing you all the best with your research!

My name is Julia and I am a sophomore at the University of Delaware. I have a school research paper assignment in which I have to compare home school vs. traditional school. Would you be able to give me a brief description as to why you feel home schooling is more advantageous to students rather than traditional school. What are some of the pros and cons of each? Also if there is a way for me to contact some other people you know of who would like to comment as well. I would greatly appreciate it! Thank you!

And can still very much use this wisdom now, as my youngest is 5 and will have a completely differerent homeschool approach than I did before. Love the no rush message, and reminder to let them learn through play:)
