TBH, a great way to respond to any conflict. Saving this one for a rainy day reminder!

[@homeschooljoy]

Thanks for watching! 😊🌼

I am getting alot of pushback from people who keep arguing the socialization aspect of homeschool. The approach you provided is exactly what I needed to arm myself with! These are people who I love and care about the most but they aren't supporting me on this. I think your approach will help me alot get through this. Thank you!

[@homeschooljoy]

You are brave!! It is hard to have the people you care about react negatively in your homeschool choices. I am sorry about that. Stay strong and keep focused on your kiddos. Just know from a homeschooling mom of 24 years, I had to limit my kids from getting too much social as homeschoolers. Thanks for watching and commenting. Blessings to you and your family. 🌼😊🌼

thanks for this. i searched this topic. i have neighbours who try to quiz my child to see what he knows and does not know, they say that they think he "should be in school"..... i am super sensitive anyway, with almost no skin let alone thick skin, and as you said, it stays with you. your advice is helpful to me! subbed. i want to say... how do you live with yourself whilst suffocating, traumatising, exposing children to sex ed, bullying, materialism, lies in curriculum????? hahaha, not a good plan but i get hurt, angry and defensive. xo

[@homeschooljoy]

I’m so glad that you are staying strong! Keep pushing through what everyone says to you. Thanks for your support! 😊🌼

my fave is when someone who is very poorly educated voices an opinion. 🤦 my reply: "we're homeschooling so he doesn't turn out like you." 😂🤣 -i know we should be nice/kind, but i find being blunt/funny sticks better. -& i enjoy being confrontational & petty sometimes. 😂🤣 -but thank you for the high road advice; i'll consider it for maybe a different scenario/audience whom i wouldn't want to offend. 🙏

Sherry… I couldn’t stop laughing when I read this. 😂 I love your bold and powerful mama bear attitude. You go girl!! 🥰 Thanks for watching and giving me hope in moms that are not going to take any rude comments 🌼😊🌼
