If you don't have an ACTUAL teaching degree, you should NOT be homeschooling.

That's false. Thousands of parents are doing it all over the world. A teaching degree teaches you how to teach a group full of kids. Classroom procedures. Stand in line. Sit down. Recess. Not how to educate an individual in your home about what they love to learn about. It's actually quite simple once you learn how your children learn. And Dr. Willard is really great at helping people with that. You're welcome to come to my house and see how we are thriving. I do have a degree by the way. Not in education. As does my husband. Also, not in Education.

If you don’t have a parenting degree, you should not be parenting… Either both of these statements are true, or they are both nonsense. Competence and ability are not limited to what a university can offer you at a price.

@@hollywittwer2513this is a very gracious response. There will always be those happy to tell other people what they “should” do with their children. Luckily they parent is the only authority that matters when it comes to serving your children best

Education and teaching are not the same. A teaching "degree" does not guarantee a good education and the state of declining public school education is proof of that. There are wonderful teachers at heart and then those that just have the brain for it but not the quality or professionalism. I don't have a teaching "degree" but my child came out of public school with a read plan, after a two year span of "interventions". After just one year of homeschool my child is above grade level now. I have another special needs child that will never be at grade level but her medical condition improved greatly just by being homeschooled. All parents have the capability to research and dig for resources for their child's needs which public schools are not willing to do for each student. As a parent that had children taught by public school teachers with a teaching "degree" I am still amazed at how still my kids prefer to be at home learning and excited about learning. I don't struggle anymore in the mornings pushing them to public school where the "teachers" are. They themselves get up and are ready to dig in to their subjects and ask all the questions they want and need to. We are instilling a love of learning for life, not getting a good grade on a test and forgetting about it as adults. I had a superb public school education, these days it's a shame the diservice our kids get in our publicly funded schools that have been pre-paid and over-paid with our tax dollars. This needs to be looked at at all angles to build a true prespective. I have been blessed to of experienced both sides and clearly know the better side.

@@lifejourney1136 thank you for sharing! This testifies to the heart of the issue. Teaching degrees do not make good teachers, but the love of a parent is a strong enough motivator to push them to do whatever is necessary to help their children succeed. It is clear that you have made sacrifices to ensure your children get the best. 🙌🙌🙌
