Summary

As you know, my husband and I have seven children. They range in age from Jr High to adult—with the oldest being in her 30’s. Today, I am blessed to have all of my kids in the studio to talk about what it was like to be homeschooled—would they homeschool their own kids, what about socialization, what their biggest “takeaways” about homeschooling were and more. This is the first time they have all been on the podcast together. We hope you enjoy this special interview. Merry Christmas!
