Episode Synopsis

If you're considering homeschooling or you're already a homeschooling family, one recurring worry you might have is that your kids may become "weird" due to limited exposure to traditional school environments.    As homeschooling parents, we often encounter questions and concerns about our children's socialization. In today's episode, Janae takes listeners through the journey of socializing your kids and finding your tribe while also exploring the concept of peer orientation.    In a society where peer relationships often define a child's socialization, homeschooling offers an opportunity to challenge this norm. By emphasizing the importance of parental involvement and meaningful connections, we can provide a more holistic approach to socialization. As homeschooling parents, we naturally feel concerned about our children's socialization.    However, by embracing diverse social opportunities, supporting their interests, and encouraging our children to explore their passions and engage in activities they love, we open the doors to meeting others with similar hobbies and aspirations.    Janae's Book Recommendations: Hold Onto Your Kids * Please note that some of the links included in this article are Amazon affiliate links.   Join the Private Facebook Group  Connect and follow Janae’s journey on Instagram @janae.daniels Learn more about School to Homeschool
