SHOW TOPICS:
Dads and soon-to-be-Dads, are you trying to convince your wife to homeschool? Our guest today, John, shares his story of how he and his wife worked this discussion. Now, 19 years of homeschooling later, they share their lessons learned and suggestions for others in their book, “This Is Not A School.” Take self-custody of your parenting. In the long term, the low time preference view, it’s worth it. The way we help other parents is by sharing.
IN THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL LEARN:
· John’s book is “This Is Not A School: A nineteen year family education journal”
· Their reasons for homeschooling were not religious
· He was inspired by his mother who emphasized how important it is to take full responsibility for the education of your children
· Get the food right is one of the cornerstones of homeschooling
· Limit the bad influences, e.g., what kids may be exposed to in public schools
· John had to convince his wife to homeschool
· You don’t need to have a lot of money to homeschool
· They emphasized to their children that they were responsible for their own education
· Teaching kids how to think for themselves is so important, e.g., critical thinking, mental frameworks
· Self-custody parenting … Take control of what your kids are going to eat, going to experience, going to be exposed to
· Parents are the ones who have the greatest incentive to take care of kids
· When your kids fall down, don’t baby them. Tell them to get up.
· In many schools, administrators pummel kids with questions that really are suggestions, e.g., do you feel suicidal, do you feel like the opposite sex
· They based their homeschooling on real world projects and situations, e.g., forming a PAC with their children called “Cannabis Consumers for Liberty”
· Their family came under additional scrutiny and potential monitoring … John says that those who homeschool should be prepared for similar treatment
· In the long term, the low time preference view, it’s worth it. The way we help other parents is by sharing.
· Talk to kids like adults about all subjects, especially money
· They are working with Adam Curry to set up a Lightning node to process microtransactions for their audio book
· The kids were with them when they set up their bitcoin wallet
· Do what you need to do to be present with your family
· If you’re feeling discouraged because it feels challenging to homeschool, don’t give up.
· John explains the history of National Computer Systems (NCS) and its influence over the US educational system and standards. They were purchased by Pearson, a publishing company in London.
· Go to the original, printed sources whenever possible … Build a book library of unabridged classics
