Summary
In today's intro, Laura discussed how she's been fascinated for a long time by families who manage to have both parents work full time while also managing homeschool. Then, Anandi Raman Creath joins her to chat about how she did just that when her kids were in the elementary years (even before COVID made it a more common thing!).
In the Q&A, a listener wonders how to handle it when one child needs more attention at a given time (in her case, related to a medical diagnosis). How do you balance the increased needs while ensuring siblings feel well cared for, too?
