Transcript: What Do You Say to Encourage People Who Want to Homeschool?
Rob:
How do you encourage someone who says, I don't have the
ability to teach my children? What do you say to them to encourage them?
Harriet:
If God has called you to homeschool, He will equip you. You
may not know everything you need to know right now. I have had many parents come
to our store and say, "I'm learning this along with my child."
My own sister, who is a physician, is telling me about
reading Charlotte's Web and all these wonderful children's books. I'm just
looking at her, [saying] "You mean you never read that when you were a child?"
[She said,] "No, I always had other things to do. Now I get
to read all these things and I'm learning all about children's literature and
some other things [I] didn't have time for [I was] in school. "
A lot of parents find that it's a chance to learn for
themselves.
