If you’d asked me a year ago if I’d ever be homeschooling my children, I would have outright laughed at you and told you that you had lost your mind. But never say never, because now I find myself homeschooling three of my five children.
But as this school year approached, I knew we needed to do things differently. Public pre-K education was only offered to children with special needs. That includes our 4-year-old, who has a rare genetic condition called Ohdo syndrome. He’s globally delayed, so he now gets much-needed services through the school system. But I didn’t think my other two boys could do virtual all day, and while a hybrid was offered in our county, I thought they would struggle to wear a mask all day too.
Do I think my kids are each getting all that they need educationally? The honest truth is my opinion on that changes day-to-day. I don’t have specialized training in teaching, and I realize how much work and science goes into that. Truthfully, I just don’t think most mothers are equipped to match what teachers give our children in school.
