Should I Homeschool My Only Child?

After worrying that I wasn’t adequate enough to homeschool my child, my next concern was that I couldn’t do it with an only-child. I worried that I’d be taking him out of his biggest social environment and secluding him away from other kids. I worried that he would turn out weird and not know how to be around other kids. This was especially because we had just moved from out of state and didn’t know anyone. My family must have thought I was crazy when I announced that we were moving and I was homeschooling.

Receiving opposition to homeschooling comes with the territory. Knowing this, it still hit me like a ton of bricks when I got a text message the other day.

The message was from a family member voicing their opinion on putting my son back into school for the next school year. They were concerned that he would be missing out on the life lessons and social aspects of being in the traditional school environment. Ha!  Sound familiar? 

I couldn't do anything but let out a long sigh and put the phone down because I didn’t even want to deal at the moment.

I love to read a good story about homeschooled kids who have graduated successfully and are well-rounded. It encourages me in my journey to homeschool my own child. It also gives me something to point to when people try to challenge my choice. The story of Noah Kutz is nothing short of awesome and inspiring to homeschool kids and parents alike, which is why I wanted to share it. ​

​Each day lots of parents are waking up to the truth of public education. They are making the decision to homeschool their children instead.  Unfortunately, there seems to be a common path of uncertainty and confusion that most parents take, myself included.  

You know that you have to get your child out of their current environment for whatever reason (bullying, falling behind, too far ahead, mistreatment by staff, etc.).  You are desperate to homeschool but are unsure of what to do and definitely not confident you can do it alone. So you try to find something that looks like what you just left.
