The Benefits of Homeschooling Your Special Needs Child

[@spedmomtherapist535]

This is my third year of homeschooling, and this is the best podcast I’ve ever heard on helping special needs children! My daughter has auditory processing disorder and sever e stuttering. Public school didn’t have the time to help her. Homeschooling was the best thing I could have ever done for her!

Thank you for this. I’ve been considering homeschooling my 6 year old daughter with a speech impairment and is struggling in school. This made me feel like it’s possible and that I could do it! I needed this video. ❤

Thank you for this, I'm on my third year of homeschooling my son, and this was so refreshing to listen to, definitely empowering! My son has klinefelter syndrome, which has attributed to asd, global developmental delay, low tone, etc, so it definitely weighs heavily on me to do right by him.

What homeschool are you in?

I am considering it, but very afraid of doing it. Kids are not meeting their IEP goals at school. I am annoyed that they are allowed to screw up kids' education and not care about it.

The public school district where I live actually got sued by some parents, at least one of whom was an educator himself, for failing to obey laws regarding the rights of disabled and special needs students, so I understand your frustration. After homeschooling both my kids during covid, I sent one back to public school and kept the other at home. The one who went back to public school definitely had a rocky transition but I can, with only slight hesitation, now say I think she is beginning to thrive -- despite many aspects of the public school environment continuing to be less than ideal. In my personal experience, dealing with the emotional fallout of the ways the education system fails our kids is never going to be easy, and I think a lot of parents, even those whose kids are deemed "neurotypical," what they do is they stuff those feelings down or they almost dissociate at some level, so that they don't have to deal with how much it hurts. The implications for society in general are not great.
