Just when I think there could not be anything I haven't answered already, you show up with new questions! And I love it! Let's tackle a few questions submitted by homeschool moms, just like you. These topics cover homeschooling a strong-willed child, how many children to have, and broaching the discussion with your doctor about homeschooling. I promise to share my honest thoughts and then, I want you to consider your own circumstances and pray for clarity to determine where you stand. ♥ Leigh ASK YOUR QUESTION TO BE ANSWERED ON THE PODCAST: https://form.jotform.com/leigh620_leigh_Leigh/podcast DESIGN YOUR FAMILY'S UNIQUE HOMESCHOOL THAT YOU'LL LOVE! https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/blueprint CREATE YOUR HOMESCHOOL FAMILY'S HOME TASK SYSTEM https://www.littlebylittlehomeschool.com/tidyhome GET EXCLUSIVE MENTORSHIP WITH LEIGH https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/mentorship SIMPLIFY YOUR MEAL PLANNING https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/meal Website - https://www.littlebylittlehomeschool.com Newsletter - https://littlebylittlehomeschool.myflodesk.com/subscribe Community - https://www.facebook.com/groups/homeschoollifestylecommunity Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/littlebylittlehomeschool/ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/littlebylittlehomeschool/ Listen to these related episodes: 423.

	339. Instilling Character Traits In Homeschool Children By Using Historical Stories With Marilyn Boyer of Character Concepts	27 Feb 2025	00:26:04
DESIGN YOUR FAMILY'S UNIQUE HOMESCHOOL THAT YOU'LL LOVE! https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/blueprint CREATE YOUR HOMESCHOOL FAMILY'S HOME TASK SYSTEM https://www.littlebylittlehomeschool.com/tidyhome You've heard that it's a good idea to teach your homeschool children character. And you're convinced that it will be a good use of your time. But, where do you start? Today's guest, Marilyn Boyer, from Character Concepts has been helping parents instill character traits and qualities into homeschooled children for years. And she has combined that with her love of history and storytelling to help show your children what character looks like through the lives of historical figures. Marilyn and her husband began homeschooling before it was technically legal and quickly found that success in academics and relationships came from sharing God and the character He desires to grow in us.

JOIN THE MENTORSHIP https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/mentorship Questioning your ability to homeschool probably happens often. Maybe on a weekly basis. Possibly even daily. You've taken on what is seen as a unique responsibility in our culture. Everyone else just puts their kids on the bus or joins the carpool line and they just assume that their children will be educated properly. But, homeschooling is different because the entire 360 degree view of life is included and you often wonder if things are going well and if you're on the right track. I have 3 easy ways to take the temperature of your homeschool. Listen in for these and then measure your own homeschool against it. But, have no fear!

	335. When The Arguments Against Homeschooling Don't Match Up With The Evidence With Israel Wayne	13 Feb 2025	00:24:57
DESIGN YOUR FAMILY'S UNIQUE HOMESCHOOL THAT YOU'LL LOVE! https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/blueprint CREATE YOUR HOMESCHOOL FAMILY'S HOME TASK SYSTEM https://www.littlebylittlehomeschool.com/tidyhome If you've heard it once, you've heard it a million times...or close to that number. But, how do we respond within Christian circles to the scrutiny against homeschooling? Is there any evidence to back-up what we're seeing within the four walls of our own homes? Israel Wayne, of Family Renewal, has been educating home educators for decades. He combines his knowledge of Scripture with the actual data, along with his lived experience to equip homeschool parents to disciple their children. Not only that, but he seeks to provide you with data and evidence to graciously, but confidently refute arguments against homeschooling. There are two main claims that Christians will often use against homeschooling. He refutes both of those, along with telling us why so many Christian parents refuse to homeschool their children. This episode will be such an encouragement as you carry out the call God has on your life! ♥Leigh Israel's website: https://www.IsraelWayne.com Family Renewal website: https://www.FamilyRenewal.org Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/family-renewal/id797716110 Helpful resource: https://www.ChristianWorldview.net JOIN THE MENTORSHIP https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/mentorship Website - https://www.littlebylittlehomeschool.com Newsletter - https://littlebylittlehomeschool.myflodesk.com/subscribe Community - https://www.facebook.com/groups/homeschoollifestylecommunity Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/littlebylittlehomeschool/ Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/littlebylittlehomeschool/ Listen to these related episodes: 172. 5 Ways to Help Instill Faith in Your Homeschool Child and Why It Is Worth the Time 324.

DESIGN YOUR FAMILY'S HOMESCHOOL WITH YOUR HOMESCHOOL BLUEPRINT https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/blueprint CREATE YOUR HOME TASK SYSTEM WITH THE TIDY HOME https://www.littlebylittlehomeschool.com/tidyhome Picking out and using curriculum in homeschool is a lot of fun. And it should be! But, there is so much more to these years than the lessons. Whether it's pressure from your homeschool state regulations, your own school experience, or voices of family and friends, most of the focus is on creating the modern school system within your home. The methodology and mindset creeps in easily. But what if homeschool was about something much more than lessons, multiplication tables, essays, and transcripts? That would mean you are missing out on something huge if you only focus on those. Let's bust the notion that homeschool needs to be solely about subjects and what lessons were accomplished this week.

One of the top reasons that moms are scared to homeschool is that she doesn't know how to teach her children of different ages and gender. She looks at the school system and it makes sense to separate children, at least by age. But, looking at her every day is a mixture of boys and girls and various ages. Instead of seeing this as a negative, homeschool moms can actually provide an amazing education based upon the uniqueness of a family. Do you feel intimated or overwhelmed with homeschooling your boys and girls? I felt the same way, but learned through the years how to optimize this instead of being anxious about it.

Every child has been created by God with a uniqueness, but there tends to be a few overarching themes when they are separated by gender. It can become easy to be frustrated with boy behavior.

It seems like everywhere you turn, someone is adding to the list of subjects to cover in your homeschool. And those are all really great courses of study and enrichment, but maybe they're not right for you. Simplicity is calling your name. And you'd rather get really good at a few subjects and topics than try to cover everything. Let's link arms and pare down the list to make it more manageable.

No one starts something with the intention of quitting. And that especially applies towards parents making decisions about their children. Of course, homeschooling is included in that! So, if no one plans to quit, why are there numbers of families doing just that? Could your family be next? Over the past decade, I've observed a few trends and one of them is the when, who, and why behind walking away from homeschooling. I thought that this should be brought to light and openly discussed so that you can combat this possibility on a personal level.
