Trying to Be “Standard” is Not the Goal
Every time I see this text from an Apple ad from 20 years ago, I think of homeschoolers and the fantastic potential that they have:
“Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them. About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they change things. They invent. They imagine. They heal. They explore. They create. They inspire. They push the human race forward.”
Homeschooling provides untold opportunities to awaken their creativity and give them the chance to discover what their God-given gifts might be. But you, the parent, have to be brave enough to step away from a “standard” education. The dreamers, healers, builders, and inventors are never “standard”, and the sooner they could move away from “standard”, the sooner they were able to explore the universe, create things, connect ideas, and chase their dreams.
Helping parents follow that new path now for over 20 years,
and blessed to be be able to help.
Happy Homeschooling,
