HOME'S KOOL!

I came out from the Learning Beyond Schooling talks (on Sat, June 14) feeling great!


Homeschooling is definitely going places, based on the responses we have been getting on FamilyPlace and the recent talks we had - one thing is clear: PARENTS WANT TO TAKE CONTROL OF THEIR CHILDREN'S EDUCATION. One of the best way to do it to adopt homeschooling.

Homeschooling not about taking a child out from one school to put him or her into another "school" be it a private learning center or a "homeschool" center. Homeschooling, as the words says, its about learning from the HOME - parents MUST play an enlarged role. Very often, some changes in live style MUST be made to accommodate out children. More importantly, homeschooling is about having faith in ourselves as parents and giving the faith to children and to listen to them - with our ears and hearts and minds.

Can we make whatever changes for the sake of our children? This is something you needs to ask. In fact, it is not just change for homeschooling - if we were to see our children success, we have to change to accommodate them. Many people have made that decision and came out absolutely happy. I am definitely enjoying it.

Nice to see more parents making the change, at least, starting to.
