Reasons for Homeschooling and Why They Matter

Paths In Your Mind

Reasons for Homeschooling and Why They Matter

Our reasons for homeschooling will affect the things we teach, the amount of time we spend on each area, the types and amounts of material we acquire and many other aspects of our homeschooling effort. Our reasons will also affect our longevity as homeschooling parents. When the going gets tough, we often start asking ourselves, “Why are we doing this anyway?” If our reasons are not good ones, we are less likely to persevere. All these things -- whether or not we teach our children at home, how and what we teach them, and how well we stick with it -- have a huge impact on our children’s future, in this life and in eternity. Our reasons for homeschooling are important long after we get started.

Reality and Unreality
