This is an excellent list and a good reminder for us all!!
Top 10 Reasons Not to Give Up!
This week's excellent Top 10 list comes from Erin Mewes.
- Your children would never find a teacher who loves them more than you do.
-
Those bad days? You would still have them even if your child went to public school--probably worse.
-
If God has called you to homeschool, then NOT homeschooling is a sin.
-
Your children are cultivating a "learning lifestyle"--everything is interesting, and their curiosity is always piqued.
-
Your children are learning not just "school stuff," but life: choices, self-sufficiency, budgeting, time management, etc.
-
Your schedule can be flexible, allowing your children to actually spend time with their father--no matter what kind of schedule he has.
-
You have got the best class size of all--one-on-one.
-
You can correct problems as they happen--not as you happen to notice them (which could be weeks after they've made it a habit).
-
Your children are encouraged to be kind to all age groups, all races, all capabilities, and all viewpoints, regardless of what other children are doing.
-
Your children can focus on their schoolwork without worrying about the troublemakers in class, what they're wearing, or being "behind".
