In today’s episode, we get to spend time with Crystal and JD Haitsma from Alberta, Canada. In this conversation, we explore several benefits of the homeschool environment, including fostering relationship-building, self-directed learning, thinking outside the box, and helping children with their emotional development. We discuss how screens and electronics impede learning and that boredom is good for kids so that they tap into their creativity and innovation. The Haitsma’s teach us about neurodivergence and how homeschooling provides a more ideal setting to help neurodivergent children. They observe that teachers in the schools are not equipped with the resources and time they would need to attend to all the needs of the students in their classrooms in the way that homeschool parents are able to do at home with their children. Crystal shares her thoughts about attachment-based research and its implications in the homeschool setting. She explains how mothers and parents have intuition to customize the learning for each child, and that parents can work with their kids to determine curriculum and learning.Connect with Crystal and JDhttps://www.coachcrystal.ca/https://www.thecoachsupport.com/jdBooksHold On to Your KidsThe Call of the Wild and Free: Reclaiming the Wonder in Your Child's Education, A New Way to HomeschoolGlow Kids: How Screen Addiction is Hijacking Our Kids, and How to Break the TranceJules Verne Collection Homeschool Philosophy and CurriculumThomas Jefferson EducationThis Golden Hour
