IN THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL LEARN:A common question from those considering homeschooling is how to not lose yourselfHomeschooling is not as hard as you might thinkIt’s okay if spouses don’t agree on all aspects (feature not a bug)You have a lot of options, each with varying impacts on time for yourselfJust start … then adjust.  It’s a process you continually tweak.You don’t need to have plan for entire K-12 experience.  Planning out a month or two in advance is fine.Part-time private schools are one optionCo-ops offer additional benefit, the opportunity to share your passionsExtended family plansHomeschooling play groups and field tripsEvery homeschooling mom, no matter how devoted needs time to herself to recoup and regenerateThere are so many resources:  Mom’s groups, churches, online curriculum, etc.Finding homeschooling groups and play groups in your areaAlways do a tour before committing to a programConsider attending homeschooling conventionsHomeschoolers are very much like Bitcoiners.  They're very, very friendly, open, and more than happy to share experience.Stay flexible and know that it's going to be okay. Take one step at a time.
