My Daughters Always Led the Way!

I always encouraged and supported my daughters to explore their unique interests and passions, on their terms, at their own pace.

Sometimes they just wanted a cursory overview of a topic, and other times, they chose to do a deep dive into a particular skill, project, or subject matter.

I loved helping them do both!

From "MY SECRETS TO THEIR SUCCESS!"

WORLD GRATITUDE DAY NEEDS OUR HELP! Work with a local greeting card crafter & help your kids create & host a small carnival game booth at a local community fair or festival to celebrate World Gratitude Day? This is an excellent opportunity for young kids to learn leadership skills and gain valuable work experience beyond simple volunteering or ministry work!

Did you know that perfecting any skill takes 10,000 repetitions?

Think about cartwheels and scoring goals on net. How about dance moves or how about driving?

Well, learning how to be a successful worker also takes AT LEAST 10,000 repetitions.

If we can give our children as many leadership-based work experience opportunities as possible while our kids are still very young, then our children can learn all the endless life skills and career skills they need to have a FABULOUS FUTURE.

This post series can help get us thinking about adding leadership-based work experience opportunities to our homeschooling program.

40 MINUTES PER DAY ON CHORES! YIKES! YEESH! YUCK!

Did you know that adults spend an average of 40 minutes per day on chores?

That’s 280 minutes per week… it’s 1213 minutes per month… it’s 14,560 minutes per year.

AND THAT’S JUST THE AVERAGE!

If you’re any kind of clean freak at all, you can probably double or triple that.

I’m sure you’ll agree homeschooling super-mommies need to equip our kids with solid strategies for making the daily chore slog enjoyable, so our awesome children can live their lives in the FABULOUS FUTURE WAY once they reach ADULTHOOD!

What’s your favorite strategy for making chores fun?

Because it’s absolutely true that a spoonful of sugar makes the medicine go down.

Please don't homeschool if you DON'T want your children to have time to learn how to get involved in their communities as strong global citizens capable of making a significant difference in the world no matter the career field they choose to pursue as adults.

Here is a bit of reverse thinking… or reverse psychology!

In my 14 years as a homeschooling super mommy, I never doubted for one second that my children would develop amazing emotional intelligence and social leadership skills and go on to have a FABULOUS FUTURE.

I always believed that as long as I didn't get in the way and do things to trip them up or dumb them down, there was no way I could fail. I always believed I was supposed to be the main steward of their care. I was supposed to be a resource for education and empowerment only.

In other words, I always believed my children came into this world perfect, and my role, as their mother, was to just help them stay on the path that had been already laid down for them.

It was never a question of irrational mom-pride or out of control mom-guilt. In fact, I’ve always believed those are useless emotions.

Now, that I'm at the end of my 14-year unschooling journey, I can say with truth and delight that I was more than right.

This series of homeschool posts called ‘PLEASE DON'T HOMESCHOOL IF…’ speak to all the amazing emotional intelligence and social leadership skills kids can develop if we just stay out of their way. All children DESERVE to have a FABULOUS FUTURE and all we have to do is nurture the process and the journey.

What is the very best thing you feel your children get from being homeschooled?

HOMESCHOOL FIELDTRIP THIS OR THAT? Learn about aboriginal peoples by visiting a totem pole site or participate in a real pow wow event?

Use the LOVE reaction for the choice on the left.

Use the LIKE reaction for the choice on the right.

And while you are out on all your fieldtrips, don’t forget to find ways to give children opportunities to learn leadership skills.

From my experience as a career education coordinator and work experience developer at an urban school board in the early 90s, I became quite good, as an ‘unschooling’ super-mommy, at turning every single community-based fieldtrip experience into a leadership-oriented work experience opportunity.

By the time my daughters reached , they’d had hundreds of leadership learning experiences of all shapes and sizes under their belts.

I found creating these types of experiences ‘on purpose’ were really the only way to teach extreme emotional intelligence and social leadership skills, which are the very foundation of absolute career success and living the FABULOUS FUTURE WAY.

Before you go, please take a moment to share your ideas on how you might turn the fieldtrip choices in this post into leadership learning experiences or opportunities.

Share how old your child is... anywhere from ages 2 to 22… and explain how you could turn this field trip into an age-appropriate leadership skills development experience. The sky is the limit on your ideas.

"Behind every young child who believes in himself is a parent who believed first." Matthew Jacobson, Blogger

So, I’m a big, huge, gargantuan fan of the wisdom of the ages… I hate the idea of reinventing the wheel… and I love the old cliches, slogans, and idioms of days gone by.

I have always believed that instead of rehashing and reworking the past, we should take all that knowledge and move strongly into the future.

I truly believe it is the only way that the most people… kids, especially… can have a truly FABULOUS FUTURE!

In this Facebook post series called Quality Quotes, I tried to find some super-powered wisdom from some very amazing people to help put everything about the importance of homeschooling in perspective.

I hope you enjoy them and learn from them.

Let me know if you know of a quote that would be suitable for this series.

"69% of peer-reviewed studies on success into adulthood (including college) show adults who were home educated succeed and perform statistically significantly better than those who attended institutional schools (Ray, 2017)."

Here is another super-statistic all about the power of homeschooling and unschooling.

I always chose to know a lot about homeschooling, and I was a very strong advocate of the movement for the full 14 years I was in it.

I haven’t stopped being a passionate homeschooling ambassador even though my kids have moved onto and .

These days, I’m developing a Facebook Guide filled with links to key research facts on homeschooling, as well as General Facts, Statistics, and Trends.

Go ahead and check out my Facebook Guide!

While you’re at it, go ahead and give yourself a wonderful D.O.S.E. of that incredible happy brain chemical called DOPAMINE by giving yourself a huge PAT ON THE BACK!

If it wasn’t for your dedication and love, none of these statistics would ever be possible.

WAY TO GO SUPER-AWESOME SUPER-MOMMY!

BTW: I would absolutely love it if you would drop me a comment telling me what else I can be providing to help you get the most from your homeschooling or unschooling experience with your awesome children.

"You know you’re a dedicated homeschooling mom when you find yourself building creative reading nooks all over the house to ignite your child's interest in reading."

There is no question... Dedicated homeschooling and unschooling moms are a unique breed of people. We have the audacity to want our children to get their individualized needs met (sarcasm intended).

We also demand that our children get to avoid most, if not all, of the traumas, trials, and tribulations associated with the public and private school systems.

If that's not enough, we want to control what our kids learn and how. YIKES!

And then there is the issue of wanting our children to learn how to think for themselves and get lots of practice doing it.

Who do we think we are?

Needless to say, it takes some serious innovation and significant effort to make all of this happen.

That’s why all these posts about are so appropriate. Enjoy!

You homeschool? Aren’t you worried about socialization? "We live in a society where pizza gets to your house before the police! Please don't concern yourself with my kids' socialization."

YIKES!

The single most troublesome feedback ALL homeschoolers get from the public is the question and criticism of socialization.

What's your favorite reply or comeback?

Or what's your favorite bit of homeschool socialization humor?

I hope you enjoy this humorous post series about the issue of socialization.

But all humor aside, here is some much more scientific food for thought, as well.

1. If socialization were a problem, would colleges and universities be developing recruitment strategies to attract homeschoolers?

2. If socialization were a problem, would 87% of peer-reviewed studies on social, emotional, and psychological development show homeschool students perform statistically significantly better than those in conventional schools (Ray, 2017).

3. If socialization were a problem, would research facts on homeschooling show that the home-educated are doing well, typically above average, on measures of social, emotional, and psychological development, based on research measures, including peer interaction, self-concept, leadership skills, family cohesion, participation in community service, and self-esteem?

4. If socialization were a problem, would homeschool students be regularly engaged in social and educational activities outside their homes and with people other than their nuclear-family members, such as field trips, scouting, guiding, 4-H, political drives, church ministry, sports teams, arts programs, and community volunteer work?

5. If socialization were a problem, would adults who were home educated be more politically tolerant than the public schooled?
