So here I am on Hive now. I thought I'd make a post I never took the time to do back when I was on Steem. I am a Canadian Father of three beautiful boys and married to the prettiest wife ever. We live in the French eastern part of Canada called Quebec and we speak both French and English since they are the two official languages here.
We are currently affected, like pretty much everyone else, from the coronavirus threat. Staying at home with 3 kids isn't particularly easy but we do our best.
Two years ago we started homeschooling, hence the username. It really helps us during the current crisis. Since our kids are already accustomed to being taught at home, they didn't see much of a change in the last weeks or so. We just stopped going to unschoolers meetings. That's the part they dislike the most because they were just starting to make friends and now they don't see each other anymore.
I'm lucky to be able to work from home being a software developer, so that's great news money-wise. How long I'll be able to continue, nobody knows but I can't complain for now. My wife is awesome with the kids! She used to be a teacher but became a full-time mommy at home for their own good.
My eldest went to school until grade 2, my wife decided at that time she was willing to leave her job behind and become a mom at home. School wasn't particularly bad, but we thought giving love away was more important than raising little workers. We didn't even decide yet if we will send our kids to secondary school, we'll see by that time...
My youngest never went to school, and he's pretty ok with it. He's asking questions and we answer them. I think they don't know yet how lucky they are, and I hope one day they realize.
