Homeschooling parents are under great pressure. Besides trying
to balance teaching responsibilities and family life, they often
face unrealistic expectations from relatives, churches, other
homeschoolers, and society at large. Even parents considering
homeschooling sense the need to be perfect.
Sonya Haskins doesn't want any more families to give up on
homeschooling. In this book she shares affirming stories and
practical ideas from dozens of everyday families who successfully
deal with cluttered schedules, academic struggles, sibling
squabbles, and other real-life issues. Instead of learning a
one-size-fits-all approach, readers will discover how to evaluate
their own family's strengths and weaknesses and set their own goals
for success.
