Summary

This Charlotte Mason podcast episode is another Q&A. As we implement the method, challenges arise: what adjustments need to be made when I come to the method late, how should I organize my home differently, and what about the only child's needs, are this week's focus.

"It is not an environment that these want, a set of artificial relations carefully constructed, but an atmosphere which nobody has been at pains to constitute. It is there, about the child, his natural element, precisely as the atmosphere of the earth is about us. It is thrown off, as it were, from persons and things, stirred by events, sweetened by love, ventilated, kept in motion, by the regulated action of common sense." (Vol. 6, pg. 96)

"No artificial element [should] be introduced...children must face life as it is; we may not keep them in glass cases." (Vol. 6, pg. 97)

0:00.0	A Delectable Education podcast is sponsored by Truth Quest History.
0:05.0	We at Truth Quest History see the subject of history a little differently.
0:08.7	Not as a litany of dates and deeds, but that past kings, artists, philosophers, scientists, warriors, and everyday folks act upon
0:17.1	their beliefs.
0:18.8	Since God is central in history as its initiator, an establishment of all truth, how man has responded to that truth has shaped history.
0:27.0	Throughout Truth Quest history, the students learn of the wars and paintings, the scientific

0:40.5	means to harness history study as dramatic proof of truth for families, governments,
0:46.6	economies, nations for eternity through the pages of living books and resulting inspiring rich discussions.
0:55.0	Visit truthquest history.com to see samples and reviews of this award winning history
1:01.0	curriculum. Oh, Thanks for joining us today on a delectable education, the podcast that

2:00.0	to talk about starting a Charlotte Mason education with an older student, a student who's not just coming in at the beginning of their education.
2:08.0	We will probably do a full episode on this with more particulars, but we thought we would touch on it today in our question and answer because our
2:17.3	Popcast schedule is so full for this year.
2:20.3	So here's the question we got. My kids are now 12 and 9. Am I too late to implement? I would
