- Is this your first year homeschooling?
Did you pull your kids out of public school to start this grand homeschooling adventure?
Are you finding that many of the issues that showed up during homework time are now showing up during school time?
OR
Are things not going quite as blissfully as you had planned?
Today I’m talking all about the essential need to detox (or deschool) in your homeschool … and several other ideas about making the transition from public school to homeschool.
Check out the Confident Homeschool Secrets that I mention in the video:

Thank You!! We are starting our homeschool journey because of the restrictions of public school and the trauma my boys have experienced related to bullying and not fitting in to the "one size fits all" system. Public school has never resonated with me, but I never saw myself taking it on! I'm so in now, and excited to start this journey!
Thanks so much for making this video. We just decided to pull our son out of public school on Thursday and we needed to see this :)
I appreciate your videos. Thank you!
2 of my kids are doing quite well after our first 2 weeks, the eldest is quite self-motivated, loves learning, and is a quick adjuster. The youngest has minor special needs and thrives on my one on one attentions. The middle, while quick- witted, is having a lot of trouble adjusting. He keeps telling me: "this isn't real school mom!". Even when I let him chose what subject to do. I'm looking for home help if anyone's got it...
This is SO good. Thank you!!
This is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you!
You're welcome! I'm glad it was helpful!
Great video! Thank you. I recently brought my 6th grade son home to home school. It was very apparent that he needed time to detox. When I have tried to have him do any school work that was in similar format to what he did in public school, he would shut down. I told my husband it was like he was experiencing PTSD from public school.
Absolutely! That's why detox is soooo essential. If you're gentle with him, he should come around in his own time and in his own way. You're super smart to be aware of that.
Thank you for this really great advice. I wonder how the mom was legally able to take off one whole school year with her son?
It depends on the state the mom lives in. In my state there is only one requirement that we have to meet. That is children have to attend for 180 days. Other states don't even require that and only request the name of the curriculum you are going to use. So depending on where that mom is she can easily take a year off of curriculum schooling and unschool her child.
@ToriAnn I feel like doing "at-home" learning was a great transition for homeschooling. We've unenrolled our child last week and will be homeschooling this year. 🖤
Good luck! Each day is a journey. :)
Hello Ma'am, I'm a college fresher from India. I've been struggling with my studies. I used to be comfortable enough in my classes till I graduated from 10th grade. After that I was forced to choose, forced into subjects I wasn't ready for, forced into classes where learning by rote was norm, everyday the homework increased, the theories got more difficult, I started to get further behind and it was essentially coaching and not learning. Since then, I have developed an aversion to studies, it's all the same - meaningless unrelated topics, subjects I don't like, teachers teaching us to memorize random seeming stuff, they teach in Hindi medium wherease I've been taught in English medium uptil now, studying is worst chore possible, I loose interest in everything the moment I realize it's a past of coursework. I was a bright student once now I'm average but I feel dumb. I wish someone would homeschool me or atleast help me go through the coursework, but my parents do not have the time or patience. They belive I'm just lazy and I intentionally refuse to put required hardwork in studying. But I feel lost and unmotivated. maybe you could upload tips for people wanting to homeschool themselves.
