Roadblocks to Home Education

In this episode of the Big Home Ed Conversations, hosts Kelly Rigg and Ashley Vanerio discuss the experience of meeting roadblocks as we all begin our journey home educating our kids, the fears and very real issues faced by families transitioning from mainstream schooling. They share personal experiences, legal considerations, limiting beliefs, myths vs facts and the emotional aspects of home education, emphasizing the importance of community support and reframing challenges. The conversation highlights the need for finding ways to build confidence in the home education process and encourages you to trust your instincts while navigating societal perceptions and misconceptions about home education.

Vibe check before you dig in: 

"There are roadblocks, but most of them are things that we can fix or work our way around or reassure ourselves or learn to work with. Actually, some might be values. They might be really important to you, and you need to keep them, but you learn to work with them." Kelly Rigg

"Whatever roadblock you are coming up against right now   -  think really critically of why you believe that that is something that should stop you from home educating." Kelly Rigg
