I gave up my life to homeschool our two children. I originally was going to finish my PhD in Clinical Psych, but our endless military moves prevented me from doing this. BTW - how much was YOUR career and income affected by homeschooling? Who did all of the teaching plus chores plus shopping plus EVERYTHING? It’s usually the female who gives up her life and then later wonders who even cares?
Hi Erin...My wife didn't look at is as giving up her life. She loved it to the core. My career was a plumber, work came in and I worked at it. Never punched a time clock since my 20's. God has ALWAYS provided for us. My income wasn't affected thank goodness because with the loss of her income we would have been toast. She was the main teacher. I worked out with them in martial arts and did outdoor activities with them. We both did chores, I do a lot more than she does in most cases. I do ALL the shopping because I'm a spend thrift and always look for the best prices. I know I care. I love her deeply and am so proud of her as a mother who was willing to make sacrifices to keep her boys out of the gooberment skewl cistern that teaches communism in disguise. I'm glad you made the choice. Be PROUD because you know what? Only one person really needs to care. YOU.
if i had kids i would of definitely home schooled them and maybe set up some kind of home business with them and it would be fun, all in the family, here is a question if the wife made a lot more money then the husband who would be the home schooler
Maybe I should have been. Except she told me that she really didn’t like being a nurse. Too much drama and seeing people that sick and dying all the time took it’s tole on her.
It became very stressful when you had too many patients and you couldn't do the job you knew you were supposed to do. That's why I quit hospital nursing and went into home health care. It had its own set of problems but it was a better fit for me. I've always been grateful to have had my nursing experience.
There are many dads actively involved with homeschooling their children. I've also known moms who work PT or evening hours and still manage to homeschool. Depending on the ages of the children, a lot of them can manage their own schedule with minimal input from the "teachers". Homeschooling can be very flexible; one of the great things about it.
You’ve done very well by them, and I can tell by their faces in the 2012 pic, they appreciated every second! Btw,our grands are all homeschooled until like junior year in high school. Both girls are straight. A’s and both are taking college level courses.
I know. I was in one for 12 years. And yet, the spirit that has been steering my life’s course kept me under the shadow of His wings. For you see, most people are just mediocre minded cowardly conformists because it's comfortable and simple. I'm not one of those people. I was gifted with the HEART of a LION.
We stopped sending our kids to public school in 1999 and started homeschooling. By the grace of God, it was the best decision we ever made as a family.
I was blessed with a built in tin foil hat that kept their shit from polluting my brain. I was the kid that asked questions. LOTS of them. They got me in trouble sometimes because none of the so called teachers could answer them. Where did those questions come from I wonder? From a LION’S spirit that dwelt in this earthly body. Most people are just mediocre minded cowardly conformists because it's comfortable and simple. I'm not one of those people.
They do not like being questioned. I had a classmate that was sent to a mental hospital because he questioned the narratives. The more I thought about it all, the more I began to realize my classmate was the one who was normal and that it was everyone else that was messed up.
What a great-looking family! So glad this worked for you all and I encourage getting out of the government schools!

Absolutely not!!! 😊😊😊
Heartwarming. Kids learn more walking home from school, than they did in school

Ty for this! Amazing family and values.
Wow..
Your blessed

Nothing like self-initiated learning! Good job Mom and Dad and boys!
Public school is no place for a child.

Public Skools= Education Death and the State is not going to solve that, because, for the simple reason....It is creating by the State !!!!!
What I would like to know is where all the tax money goes that is supposedly going toward schools and education.
Some polyTICKshun’s pocket. Or in the case of Harrison Arkansas, for the “rec plex”.
Ticks is a perfect description. Ticks and ass worms.
You made the right decision, Sir. It took me years to unravel all the damage caused by public schools.
I was blessed with a built in tin foil hat that kept their shit from polluting my brain. I was the kid that asked questions. LOTS of them.

The sad part is that many who go on to college loose their way. Or if they do as one of my sons did and hook up with a left wing automaton.
That’s all you can do. Their life, once they leave the nest is theirs. They have to make mistakes and hopefully work through them.
i am single and have always been, so why do i have to pay for someone else's kid to go to a bad school ???
Agreed. Why should anyone but the people that want to use these brain dirtying facilities have to pay for them? USE fees make sense. THEFT doesn’t.
