In March 2020, the world came to a screeching halt. Families with school-aged children were scrambling to navigate remote learning while parents worked from home. When the school year ended, there was a collective sigh of relief and the hope schools would reopen in September.
Thanks for sharing your journey, Tracey! Although I was familiar with alternative approaches to school, we were reluctant home learners, too, 30 years ago! It's been an honor to see your family grow. I've loved seeing your son's dimples again and the light coming back in his eyes. Even while ill, helping him focus on his strengths and interests reawakened his curiosity and desire to learn.
Looking forward to seeing what the next chapter looks like :)
Homeschooling takes a serious effort and commitment on the part of the parent(s). Your son is lucky, blessed really, to have you as a staunch, avid supporter of his academic success. And yes, there is so much more in life than what is learned from books that homeschooling can be a significant aspect to the maturation of our young adults.
