Homeschooling: Know Your Why

It can be really hard to hang in there toward the end of your homeschool career. Whether it’s one child or five, once we see the light at the end it can just be hard to finish well. Our children often ask to go to a traditional school, independent attitudes can show themselves, parenting differences appear as the kids get older, and frankly we can just get tired. If you find yourself in this position, it’s critical to revisit why you decided to homeschool in the first place. It can make all the difference!
