Many parents start off homeschooling unsure and scared of what they are about to begin. I, on the other hand, started off assuming homeschooling would be easy. After all, I used to be a teacher. One student versus twenty students seemed much easier, but pride goes before the fall. Real life taught me that homeschooling is harder than it looks. Trials change us and make us think deeply about matters we might otherwise have skipped over. By realizing that I didn’t know as much as I thought I did, I found myself sensing that what I was doing wasn’t a good fit for me, nor for my children. What was the problem? I didn’t know I needed to think about education differently. I was thinking more like a teacher and not like a homeschool mom.
