Why Don’t I Send My Kids to a School?
That is the question I ask myself every time there is frustration during a day or I am simply tired of giving and giving. But the truth is I would not have it any other way. I think homeschooling is going back to the organic and original plan of God to educate our children by loving them, showing them how life at home is and also learn from the ugly of ourselves to change and ask for God’s help even more.
It all started when I was pregnant and the choice of school was a big deal for me since I did not want my child to go to public school. However, we finished sending her to a special Spanish Immersion program within the walls of a public school and that day there was no peace in my heart. Then, I started volunteering to read books in Spanish to the kids, and I noticed two things: the children were not even learning or having enough input of basic Spanish words, and second, I noticed their teacher looking at me in a displeasing way. She did not like me, period! So much, that she asked me that if next time I could come back and just work individually with each kid for literary proficiency. HELLO? Isn’t that your job?
Quite frankly, I witnessed the level of education and attention these kids were getting.
