What if your child is very intelligent, how would they qualify for a scholarship if they are not in a school setting?

Listening further, yes it is hard to flip a switch and be the teacher. But you are smart enough, and you can do it! There are tons of resources out there to help guide you! Getting started and setting a routine is probably the hardest part. (If you want a routine) As far as socializing, there are tons of other ways to do that within arts and sports as well as other moms and maybe homeschool groups that get together once a week.

I have 4 children and three of them were or are still being homeschooled. My oldest went all the way through and graduated high school at a tech school. My middle two were pulled out around 3-4 grade and then asked to go back to school for high school. One currently is still in high school and the other opted to leave in the 10th grade and finish at home. And my fourth has been homeschooled from the beginning and is currently being homeschooled. My experience has taught me a lot about the different changes a child goes through either in or out of the public school system. I agree with both of you on your stances and appreciate you both discussing this! Personally I have sided with the homeschool avenue. I want my children to be independent thinkers and not be indoctrinated on whatever is going on politically at the time. I find public school is greatly influenced by whatever is going on at the time as far as political movements. For instance with the DEI movement, schools were given funding if they excepted this policy which inherently goes down the line and affects the children. I only know this because I was actually on the board of education for a period of time and this was one of the issues that came up. Now with the current administration that has gone into office, this DEI policy that was excepted now has to be replaced because it doesn’t follow the current administrations ideals. So all of the children that were raised in the public school system with this policy in place have a different view than those who will not have this policy in place. It’s sad that instead of school focusing on education, they focus on indoctrination. I feel if you can and have the means to do so then one should opt to raise their child in the family setting and not the school setting. Unfortunately I know that not many people can do that due to both parents having to work.

I like the "looking forward to" or "small goals" versus resolutions. This year I'm looking forward to/small goal of doing more outside activities!

I enjoyed that. Thank You. So much more could be said and shared although lets try for the greater good to put this nightmare behind us.. He is a dirty person and deserves every thing coming his way. Health and housing.. Blessings to ALL 🙏

You could do a "survey" of lots of people's traditions, and keep your favourite ones for your family! We play that "head-bands" game with the paper hats you get in Christmas crackers every year

Never use the words "try this" we go with here is dinner .... what is it? Dinner..... so far only thing she flat out didn't like was turnip but wasn't a great turnip to start lol

A grower (not a shower) person, what an elegant concept!

You guys a weirdos

Mini golf is the number 1 first date! Never fails!

What do you think about how much more advanced televisions have become in the last 30 years. Do you think a boxy, fuzzy, 48in 90s TV was less stimulating than a 60in 4K OLED TV?

Cool picture! If you're still in contact with that other person, you should re-create it, where the other person is the jealous one this time!

I needed to hear this, thanks guys! Awesome video!

The sword analogy was awesome! Anyone that wants to feel tough (whether they are or not), can be comforted by the fact that they are a sword in progress

Great podcast, guys!

The fact that you did Ferber/ Cry it out with your kids, it's fine. Sleep training is for the parents. Even you say that ("the bags had to go"). But saying that you'll give good advice and then say that "you should force the baby to take the pacifier and if they don't put a towel to block it" is wild. Babies have a natural reflex to throw up. So basically you're blocking the way out. And no, that fact that you're watching the naps, doesn't help. There is no indication that baby will throw up. They just do. Also, babies like to move their head. Overall it is a very bad advice. Also the swaddle it is recommended to be used until 8 weeks or until baby gives the first sign of rolling. Rolling can also happen at night. 🚩"we have two different kids so our information is right" is just survival bias. You based your bad information on two kids out of what? That is just info that worked for you.🚩

Sounds similar to a widely used business process: 5 whys analysis, which was originally developed in Japan! Five Whys of your life, very interesting.

What do you think of that phrase "it takes a village to raise a child"?

What about a ceiling fan? Keeps the air moving too, so less muggy

At least it wasn't during a picture day or family photos!

Self-defense and martial arts training is such a good idea! It teaches other good values like discipline too. I did it for years

Great episode. I said I am never going to raise my children the way I was raised…. But never thought why and how do I do that 🤷‍♀️

Hopefully, peanut isn't getting her wide vocabulary from Tom! - "pepperate"

thank you for all your support!

Hang in there. Love the honesty in raw talk

I definitely have intrusive thoughts too! Mine are usually like what would happen if I.... Of course, I've never acted on them, but I have them regularly!

I fight with myself every day to be the best I can be. I don’t want my daughters to ever think, “my mom doesn’t love me, she isn’t there for me.” It’s hard but I know that if I’m trying, it’s me being aware and like they say if you’re worried about it you’re doing good because there’s people with children that shouldn’t be parents at all because they really don’t pay attention to their babies

Yup #1 helicopter mom right here 😂

Interesting how the guilt topic even carried over into the raw talk about father's day. Do you think it's fair to say expectation is a precursor for guilt?

Love raw talk

I think the winner of the appreciation battle is....your kids! Bomb-ass parents being thankful and attentive

I've heard something along the lines of: "when the baby is sleeping, the parent should be sleeping". How long did this phase last? Were you taking naps in the daylight too?

Yay to 10 episodes 🎉

ALL

Al tbe best!!!

Do you have a love list that lists all the things that show love?

I had no idea about the balding! You definitely need to coin the "reverse cul-de-sac"

second pregnancy = father holds toddler

What about the pet's jealousy when people come over? Should people acknowledge the pet first or the child first?

There's that scene in Friends where Rachel's water breaks as soon as she and Ross start getting intimate, was that your experience?!

They give oscars for supporting roles, so it totally makes sense that the supporting role in this situation is important too!

Wow what a crazy moment with everyone running in the room!!!

I would love to hear about the mental state of you both in the first month of having baby home ❤

Do you have any photos of your swaddling attempts to make us all feel better about our own?

I wonder what Tom's heart rate was during that heart rate monitoring part. Glad everyone is ok!

Thrilling bonus story towards the end of the video keep up the great work!!

100% no skid socks. Also a pen - the nurses always walked out with ours and we were meant to be keeping track of feeds and nappies and could never find a pen! 😂😂

Just Subscribe... find your channel helpful now I know what to bring in that day comes...

When you say swimwear, do you think a speedo would be the best option?
