The Homeschool Solutions Show | Faith-Based Encouragement & Practical Tips from Seasoned Homeschooling Parents
It feels like there is so much opposition to homeschooling. Though today there is a far greater degree of acceptance, plenty of voices remain which not only question but blatantly oppose our efforts to raise our children at home. That said, the greatest opposition probably comes in our own self doubts and even resistance to what homeschooling requires of us. And what does it require? Just about everything. But if we learn to yield to the requirements, to the sacrifice, we learn the secret - giving is receiving, losing is reclaiming. Death is life. About Sean Sean Allen is the founder of...

488 | Time to Talk (Sean Allen)
The Homeschool Solutions Show | Faith-Based Encouragement & Practical Tips from Seasoned Homeschooling Parents
Talking to your children and allowing them to talk to you is one of the most important and powerful things you can do as a parent. It can be too easy to assume that we know what's going on in the heart and mind of our child or that we understand why they have misbehaved etc. The truth is you won't truly know until you give them the opportunity to talk or until you ask the right questions. You have to listen and study it out in your mind. You have to pray over what you've heard and what you're observing. Then, and only then will the true answers present themselves.

info_outlineCan your children trust you? Before you answer that question, another question should be asked: "Do your children talk to you?" In our relationship with our children, trust is a precious commodity; but it's not one that magically appears in abundance, as if you've suddenly won the lottery of your child's confidence. Trust is acquired and saved over time. Over long and sustained periods as we prove our love and commitment to our children. As we talk to them and encourage them to talk to us. Because if we haven't convinced them they can talk to us, it's going to be very difficult to convince them to trust us.
