Summary
This week we talk about the move towards more homeschooling and the alternatives to traditional schooling. The downside to alternative learning is that it almost always comes with a cost. There should be more alternative ways of learning that are free. We also talk about the confusing conversation surrounding our kids and technology. We told them to use their phones to connect socially during covid and now we want them off their phones. Our teens have anxiety making plans IRL. We have to help get them back into it. Avoidance fuels anxiety.
