It may sound shocking, but it is true. Parents can’t control their adult children. They can only control their own choices and behaviors. Therefore, our success in homeschooling must be based on what we do, as parents, and not on the results we see in our children. We are like a contractor who builds the foundation of a house. Our concrete must be strong, but our work cannot ensure the house will be built properly.
Success is when you “leave it all on the field” as they say in sports. True success means you did your best, tried your hardest, and worked to prepare your children for the future. Parents cannot be perfect, but they can give their best effort. Success means giving your children the best possible education and character you can provide. After their education is complete, their choices are up to them.
Your measurement of success cannot depend on your children’s behavior, because you can’t control their behavior. It can only depend on you.
Homeschooling is NOT the same as doing schoolwork at home. There is LOTS of freedom! My Gold Care Club will give you all the help you need to succeed!
