31. Why a Homeschool Graduate Does Not Need to Attend College and What the Future Looks Like for College in General

Hey, Friend!
This episode is sure to ruffle a few feathers, but I'm good with that. As homeschool parents, we should be willing to think outside the box and consider new paths ahead.
What if the future is not like the present or the past? What should we do to prepare our children for the world they will be working in? 
We should welcome these types of conversations and be thinking about our children's post homeschool graduation lives years in advance. Let's take a good hard look at the past, present, and what looks to be future trends and not automatically assume that what "we've always done" is something we should continue to do.
And let's have fun as we explore the world post-high school beyond colleges and universities if that's what your kiddo wants to do!

29. The Best Way for Homeschool Parents to Respond to Public School Parents Asking When They’ll Put Their Children Back in ”Real School”

Hey, Friend! 
Over and over again homeschool parents hear the same few questions and comments about homeschooling. But what about this one inquiring about when we'll be putting our child back into "real school," meaning public school.
This question can hurt a bit, but remembering that it isn't a question about us and that it has more to do with the person asking, helps to shift our response.
Let's dive into how to respond to this question and how your answer depends upon a few different factors. And may this encourage you to firmly plant your feet in your decision to homeschool.

Hey, Friend!
This episode wasn't planned, but I just couldn't shake that I needed to share this movie with you. And so, here's my dive into the "Whose Children Are They Movie?" and my raw reactions to it.
I'll answer questions such as:
*Why would a homeschool mom go to a movie about the public school system?
*What can we learn from this movie?
*How can parents respond to this movie?
and
*What does this mean for homeschoolers?
Let's have an open and honest conversation.
