4. Trust Your Gut, Get a Library Card, and Use YouTube
About this episode
In today’s episode, we get to spend time with Amy Bay from Alberta, Canada. In this conversation, Amy covers a number of important homeschool topics, like participating in a homeschool community, finding mentors and outsourcing, field trips, and cultivating healthy family and peer relationships. She encourages homeschool parents to trust their intuition about what to do for their children, especially when they are starting. Loving parents trying to do the best they can for their children matters most. We discuss caring more about good books rather than finding specific curricula, and Amy explains why we don’t need to worry so much about the “should-do’s” of homeschooling and learning.
