Failing Homeschooling

A few things to do:

1. Electronics are out of bounds. Not a single second of the week or he will have a relapse. Usually most kids these days have no appetite to learn because they get too high a dosage of dopamine from electronics. It takes the joy out of learning, out of chores and out of going outdoors.

2. Homeschooling is not school at home. Before homeschooling, always deschool for a couple of weeks and find out what type of homeschooling suits your family: Wildschooling, Natureschooling, Forestschooling, Gameschooling, Worldschooling, etc. the list goes on. My kids and I have settled for JesusSchooling where the Bible is the textbook and we go through the Bible from Gen to Rev each year with all subjects intertwined into it.

3. If he is not on electronics, you're done deschooling, and he is still having an issue, the problem is the curriculum (and yes, there are plenty of workbook curricula out there). So try Sonlight.

4. If you still have issues after all this, talk to me.


All the best

Romans 8:26 "Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered." What probably should have been done is to first share with you the main reason for baptism. John 1:4-5 "John came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching a baptism of repentance for the remission of sins. 5 Then all the land of Judea, and those from Jerusalem, ...

Proverbs for the ministry

There is no glamour in full time ministry - it's all hard work, labour and toil and I love it. Ministry is when people use you, mock you, make fun of you, spit at you, push you around and hate you - that is true ministry.
