Welcome to the 102nd Carnival of Homeschooling, The Many Hats of Homeschool Edition.
To start off the carnival, let's take a look at the hostessing hat homeschool moms wear. A homeschooling mother has to wear many hats. Wanting to provide practical advice during this season of hospitality and hosting others, Tea Party Girl presents You Don’t Have To Be Unprepared for Unexpected Hospitality posted at Tea Party Girl. Dawn Adams at Day by Day Homeschooling shares some positive aspects of public school but points out that homeschooling her kids means they will get to experience things that schooled kids will miss out on. She also brings up the fact that homeschoolers fail to communicate what we do in Inviting People Into Our Homeschooling.
Good old-fashioned-ness is important to many homeschoolers

Homeschool Medical Care
Rose is astounded as she discusses How to Properly Drug Your Preschooler….What Will They Think of Next? at Learning at Home at Learning at Home. She knows that kids are active. Kids need attention. Medicating preschoolers for ADHD is just another way to avoid interacting with our children.

Homeschool Politics
JacciM at The Educational Life learned some things as she was Rockin' The Same Old Stereotypes. What do you think? Is a well-taught public school student just as impressive as a well-taught homeschool student? Is it the quality of the learning that remains pivotal? or is it the institution that surrounds that learning? Andrea presents Why I blog about homeschooling posted at Notes From A Homeschooling Mom, because in her last post she introduced a contest in which she asked her readers to tell her why they blog about homeschooling (or education). Here is why she does.
Sometimes We Need A Referee
Judy Aron presents Consent Of The Governed: Study: Religion is Good for Kids posted at Consent Of The Governed.

High School and Graduation Obviously, homeschoolers look to the future, wondering what their children will do after graduation. Ted presents The Admissions Essay posted at CampusGrotto.
