0:00.0	The Charlotte Mason method of homeschooling is becoming more and more popular, and I'm thrilled.
0:05.6	It's a beautiful way to give your children a wide and personal education.
0:11.2	As parents make the decision to use Charlotte Mason, they often say something like this.
0:16.3	The more I hear about the Charlotte Mason method, the more I become convinced that this is the method
