There are many reasons I love homeschooling. I get to hang out with my kids each day, spend my day with cuddles, and make sure that they never fall behind in their learning.
I mean, who wouldn’t love that every day?
But my favorite reason of all is FREEDOM!
Freedom
There is so much freedom in homeschooling! Freedom to do what I want, when I want! If I don’t want to start school by 8:00 am, no problem! Want to start by noon? SURE! Why not?
I get to choose my own curriculum that works for my family, choose how we learn, choose what we learn. And best of all, if I don’t want to do school today, there are ZERO consequences to not doing school.
If I want to take my kids on vacation, in the middle of “testing season”, who is to stop me?
If we want to go to the beach mid week, why not?
If we want to go to the park or a coffee shop today, then we do what we want, when we want!
If we want to get our days worth of school work done in 2 hours, then we get the whole day to play, or do whatever we want!
Time Freedom
This is true freedom! I have the freedom of my time BELONGING to me!
No one else tells me what I can or cannot do today. No teacher will tell me that we are falling behind. No teacher will tell me my kid talks to much, No teacher will tell me my kids weren’t behaving today.
Time freedom is truly the BEST freedom in the world. My time belongs to my kids, as it should be. We hang out, we read, we learn together, we have discussions about how confusing ELA can be.
And we have the time to enjoy each other.
No Constraints
Homeschooling has truly been one of the best decisions we have ever made. My kids excel and thrive by learning at their own pace.
I do not have teachers or principals or schools telling me what I can or cannot do. Their is no one that I report to, and no one that controls my time.
What about work?
If you are new to me, HI, I’m Rachael. I am an online math tutor. I set my own schedule around the schedule of my kids. My work will never interfere with the adventures or activities of the day.
As a tutor, I am self employed. I have the freedom to work for myself, and set my own schedule. I never have to ask an employer or boss if I am allowed to take a sick day, or take my kids out for the day!

The Best life decision
Ultimately, deciding to homeschool my kiddos has been the best life decision I have made. I am teaching my kids to pursue what you love, and don’t waste your life on things you hate.
So if you have kids going to public school, what is holding you back from homeschooling?
