Hey Y'all!
We get asked why we homeschool all the time. Not that I need to explain myself to anyone, but here are a few of our top reasons. We literally have thousands of reasons, but thought I'd share my heart.
Number 1: It's our God-given responsibility. If I am going to teach my children Truth and I want them to live by that Truth, then I need to model it each and every day. Ultimately we are responsible for our children's walk until they choose to walk on their own. We are to teach them how to search and work out their Salvation with fear and trembling.
"Therefore, you are to store up these words of mine in your heart and in all your being; tie them on your hand as a sign; put them at the front of a headband around your forehead; teach them carefully to your children, talking about them when you sit at home, when you are traveling on the road, when you lie down and when you get up" Deuteronomy 11:18-19
I am my child's best teacher. Even on days when I think it would just be easier to send them to school. I know them better than anyone else. I know how they learn and when they need more discipline and more schooling in a certain area. No one else is going to care about them as much as I do and make sure they get all the things they need.
The "world's reason" is what I call this one. This reason is what we tell most people because they either don't like our first 2 answers is that we live 30 minutes from school and our kids would be on the bus from dawn til dusk and we would never see them. That seems to help people see a reason as to why we would want to educate our own children.
I know everyone is not going to agree with me and that is totally fine. But one must know why they do what they do. And I'm certainly opinionated about this topic! If you are thinking about homeschooling, absolutely do no hesitate. It's one of the best decisions we ever made regarding our children's lives. Thanks for watching!!!
