Drive On: Helping Veterans Navigate PTSD & Life After Military Service

How Military and Veteran Families Make Homeschool Work


Listen Later

If you're active duty or a veteran with kids, you already know the school system doesn't move with you. New duty station, new rules, new problems, and your kids pay the price.

Natalie Mack has been homeschooling for over two decades while her family bounced from base to base, including overseas. She's not selling you sunshine and Pinterest-perfect school days. She breaks down exactly what it takes to homeschool in a military lifestyle, what families screw up, and how to do it smarter.

This episode discusses:

  • What you need to know before your next PCS
  • How to deal with overseas laws that technically ban homeschooling
  • Why more military families are ditching public school and how it affects military retention
  • The benefits for your kids (and yourself) when you take back control
