shanezomom Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 I didn't find a social group of working parents who also homeschool. Is there interest in connecting? I always find it a challenge to fit everything in and generally feel like I'm catching up on our year. I doubt that I'm alone in this so I'm throwing out a "hello" to see if I get any responses.

Mommyfaithe Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 I do work full time...from home....and homeschool. I would love a social group to talk about the issues that effect homeschooling and being a working Mom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OnTheBrink Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 I work full-time and home school, but I'm not sure I could keep up with a social group regularly. But I'd join! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acurtis75 Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 I work basically full-time because dh and I have our own business. I homeschool at the office while answering the phone, dealing with customers and agents who work with us and doing paperwork. We school year round to make up for all the days where she ends up doing more reading and playing than doing schoolwork.:tongue_smilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thefragile7393 Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 I'm full time outside the home and do my own schooling as well as my kids'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rose in BC Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 I work full time outside of the home (in a job that also requires some travel) and homeschool 1.5 of my kids :). (One full time, one half time and one goes to public school.) I might be interested in a social group but I have limited time so my participation might be sporadic.

gracesteacher Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 i work full time and then some over nights and homeschool my dd. My dh is a stay at home dad due to his disablilities so it is all me when it comes to planning purchasing buying figuring things out. We are in our K year and it has shown me that I have to also setup and do more of the teaching. It is too over whelming for him but he also agrees she should not go to public school Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deerforest Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 DH and I both work full time and homeschool. I am a full-time telecommuter and his job is flexible to some extent but we are constantly juggling things and often exhausted! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sheilam Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 There is a great "yahoo group" called WORK&HS. :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClassicalTwins Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 I work full time and travel most of the week. DH is a stay home dad and carries out the day to day, but I plan & organize. I set up weekly workboxes and plan on Scholaric then and he & the boys work through them throughout the week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs.Gregg Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Not yet, but likely something close to it. I want to maintain my nursing licence and to do so I need to have a certain number of "hours of Practice" I plan to do that by volunteering a few shifts a month at a free clinic and also giving flu shots in the fall/winter. Time wise It should equal out to 20-30 hours a week, my head is swimming just trying to work it all out. Part of the reason I decided to plan out our whole year by subject rather than as we went/go. Which in the past has been my usual method.:bigear: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mo2 Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 I work full-time from home and hs. I would join a social group, although I don't know how often I would remember to check in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thescrappyhomeschooler Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 If you count in home daycare, then I work full time and homeschool. I started babysitting in February while still homeschooling the kids. It has been a challenge to do everything I want to do with them, but so far it is working out okay.
