shanvan Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 I like these the best..... Lessons I learned from homeschooling. It’s not the method — it’s the time and the love. It’s not the test scores — it’s the character. How to pick back up and start all over again. Teenagers have so very much to offer. That I am wrong much more than I’d like. It is impossible to homeschool on my own strength. You don’t have to be patient — just willing. The character flaws seen most often were mine. Shiny new curriculum is seductive — be wise. Chocolate makes a dreary task more enjoyable (for kids and moms). :lol: (My dentist likes this one too!) Setting the alarm and getting up does not make you a morning person. Teens and toddlers need more sleep, more food, and more time than I ever realized. I don’t know nearly as much as I once thought. Every day is educational — whether for good or for bad. Simple things like games, car rides, inside jokes, and dinner time bind a family together in ways I could not have dreamt. Just because siblings don’t get along when they are younger doesn’t preclude them from being close friends when they are grown. She forgot a couple.... Parents of very young children always know the best choices for you and your highschooler. (Just ask the mom I talked to at the library yesterday.) Parents of very young children offer a fresh perspective to tired veteran homeschoolers. (It's true...though not for the mom from the library yesterday) Thanks for sharing!
