This episode we take a few questions on different topics.  We discuss a question from a dad…the varieties of the father’s role in homeschool, and what is the best way a dad can support his family in the homeschool endeavour.  We also address an age old question…what DO I do when my family or friends are opposing or decision, or that our family decision is under scrutiny or criticism.  

The topic of transitioning from younger years to older children is discussed; how do we move into high school while still maintaining a good relationship and a cozy environment?
