#246 Why 'Every' Family* Should Homeschool Their Kids if They Want EXTRAORDINARY Outcomes
Manage episode 395738254 series 2540913
First, let us start by explaining what we're NOT saying in this episode. EVERY family should not homeschool. But *most* families should (we explain what that means).
And NO, homeschooling does not automatically guarantee certain outcomes. There will still be TONS of work and intentional effort involved to produce the desired results.
However, if you have an elevated vision of what you want your family life and legacy (and children's education) to be like:
- deep, connected relationships
- lifelong love of learning
- respect and admiration from your kids into their adulthood
- critical thinking skills
- parent influence over peer influence
- mental and emotional health and well-being
- personal leadership skills (time management, goal setting, project management, etc.)
- social leadership skills (the ability to have a meaningful conversation with anyone, anywhere)
- and much more...
...then homeschooling (or alternative schooling) may be the ONLY way to effectively achieve those extraordinary ends.
The truth is, government (aka public) schooling is NOT getting the job done (for the most part).
As Jordan Peterson recently said,
"The education system -- K-12 and college -- is one of the most corrupt systems on the planet."
It's time to rethink your approach to education especially if you want to create something in your family life that is BETTER than mediocre.... even if you think your current situation is pretty 'good' (we'll explain why good is the enemy of extraordinary).
Listen now to this paradigm-shifting episode.
