This is Why I Homeschool My Daughter

Freedom

Image created by Ann Leach
  • Freedom to raise my own children, to actually be their parent.
  • Freedom to travel whenever we like and prefer (NOT on school holidays when all the venues are overcrowded and prices are sky-high).
  • Freedom to be a family.
  • Freedom to dive deeply into topics that interest us and not be forced to move on.
  • Freedom to meet my children where they are as individuals.
  • Freedom to restructure our days when what was working is no longer working.
  • Freedom to sleep in.
  • Freedom to stay up late.
  • Freedom to take a field trip any day of the week.
  • Freedom to live a fully integrated life.
  • Freedom to look into other perspectives on a topic.
  • Freedom from indoctrination.
  • Freedom to choose from ALL the pathways.
  • Freedom to NOT be a square peg forced into a round hole.
  • Freedom to not be regulated by the school calendar.
  • Freedom to use the toilet at any time without asking permission.
  • Freedom to be a whole person.
  • Freedom to learn through conversation rather than being lectured to.
  • Freedom to take breaks as needed.
  • Freedom to play with children of all ages and not be segregated by age.
  • Freedom to go and fly a kite in a perfect day.
  • Freedom to study outdoors.

FREEDOM in all the varied ways that it manifests itself.
