Benefits of Homeschooling: Building Family-Like Bonds
So instead of sticking with the stereotype of “Homeschoolers know how to speak with adults”, maybe we should say “Why don’t all kids?”...
.
I love that when it is time to leave our homeschool friends, there are hugs for all... including the parents. My kids love the parents just as much (and sometimes more! ) than the kids. We know the whole family and see it is a unit. They stand around and talk. Not kids and parents. But all. And the kids think nothing about it. .
This fact will keep me homeschooling far longer than higher test scores or religious freedom or even travel time! .
Look for ways for your kids to be around parents. Stop segregating. Order their own food. Invite over the parents and not just the kids. Push them and yourself. Don’t limit your kids relationships but expand them. .
They can’t grow into awesome adults if they aren’t surrounded my awesome adults!!!
