Discussion Questions:
Have you ever tried organizing your homeschool materials using a crate system or any other system? What worked well for you and what challenges did you face?
How do you prioritize and choose curriculum materials for your homeschool? Do you follow a specific approach, such as Charlotte Mason or unit studies, or do you customize your curriculum based on your child's needs?
What are some practical ways you incorporate character development into your homeschooling? Have you found any resources or methods particularly helpful in teaching character traits?
How do you handle the pressure to create a perfect homeschool image on social media platforms like Pinterest and Instagram? Have you ever felt overwhelmed or discouraged seeing other homeschooling families' seemingly perfect setups?
Have you ever tried incorporating video-based learning materials, such as the ones recommended by the speaker? How has it impacted your teaching and your child's learning experience?
How do you adapt your homeschooling approach as your family grows and the needs of your children change? Have you found any specific strategies or methods helpful in teaching different grade levels simultaneously?
Do you agree with the speaker's belief that a college degree is not necessary for success? What alternative paths to success have you considered or taken in your homeschooling journey?
How do you handle the challenges of teaching children who may have different learning styles or preferences? Do you customize their curriculum or adjust your teaching methods to accommodate their needs?
How do you find and evaluate homeschooling methods and curricula? Do you rely on recommendations from friends, online resources, or attending homeschooling conferences and seminars?
How do you balance the desire for academic achievement with the importance of character development in your homeschooling? How do you prioritize one over the other or find a balance between the two?

"We're called to train our kids up in the Lord. And I think it's just so important... I think I've homeschooled long enough now... you start recognizing this lie that we have been told is that trust us, trust the schools. You're not equipped to teach your children. We are equipped to teach your children... God is going to call you and equip you. If he is calling you to parent your child, he's going to equip you in that." – Kristi Clover
