Summary
Homeschooling gives families incredible freedom — but that freedom comes with responsibility. In this episode, I'm having an uncomfortable conversation about educational neglect, homeschool accountability, and the importance of honestly evaluating whether our choices are serving our children. After nearly 10 years of homeschooling, I believe deeply in this path. I also believe our children deserve us being willing to question ourselves. This episode explores homeschool blind spots, progress, child-centered education, and why changing course is sometimes the most loving choice a parent can make. This is not about perfection. It is about intentional parenting and making sure our learners are truly being served.
