Lovin' and Livin'

One thing about homeschool is the excitement that your children are becoming all that they can be rather than more of the common statistics. You can clearly see that all your children are all so very different. It's their very uniquely different personalities.

The way children learn is individual. They way they express is individual. Home is the best environment for learning. No matter the choice a parent makes, learning at home is pure livin'.

Children who attend public schools or Christian schools still need their parents help at home. Your children spend hours in the classroom to come home with work that is to include 'parent' involvement. Parents go to teacher/parent meetings to hear, 'getting involved in your children's education will help your children'. For all parents, education is 'all' the same. Parental involvement makes the difference. Why wouldn't it? The Lord has given your children into your hands for your nurture and care. A parent hears this from their church as well. So often you will hear coming from leaders in your church located in every community, "We only have your children one or two services a week, you need to teach your children at home God's word."

Not only that, it is expressed by many that "you are the example" to your children. So, the emphasis is always on our children and it is never off the parent. We as parents are to be involved in our children's lives. As for many, they have chosen homeschooling because being involved in every aspect is rewarding. Through experiencing 'life' with your children it is truly a Godly path and a wonder-filled plan of 'lovin' and livin'.
