5 things you learn when you begin to homeschool:

1. School soooo does not have to take 8 hours. Upon realizing this, you also begin to realize how flawed our public education system is.
2. You don't know nearly as much as you think you do... Also, that you are never too old to learn something new.
3. Your kid(s) is (are) AWESOME!
4. Learning comes naturally ( and so much faster) when it is fun.
5. Socialization does not only take place in the schoolyard- actually, the schoolyard starts to resemble the Lord of the Flies through the eyes of the homeschooler, with all the cliques and social debauchery rampant these days...


Are there any awesome revelations you have had as a homeschooler?
