あらすじ・解説
On episode 5 of Home Educating Wildlings podcast I tackle a big home-ed myth – whether you’re qualified or ‘clever’ enough to educate your children.
I talk about how we learn and why school is not the way for us. I am my children's partner, their mentor and their mother. We do not ‘teach’ our children, we live alongside them and help them reach opportunities to further grow their passions.
I don’t need to know about teaching because I know my children. No teacher in a classroom of 30 kids is ever going to know my kids like I do. Its incomparable. This is about the fact that I have the time, the love, the connection, the deep understanding of my children as unique beings. I want them to thrive as people – I want them to know how to look after their mental and physical health, to understand and celebrate themselves, to focus on their passions ahead of curriculum and simply enjoy life.
So do you need to have a teaching degree to give your kids a full and happy life rich in exposure, experiences and connection? Absolutely not! Do you have your children's best interests at heart? Absolutely YES!
Put beautifully by Ghandi - “There is no school equal to a decent home and no teacher equal to a virtuous parent.”
