I hate public school.. hate it, hate it, hate it. I’ve been saying for about 3 years now that I want to homeschool Sebastian, now 8. So, what’s the problem? I work from home and have an almost 2 year old sitting in my lap 99.9% of the time. My job requires that I answer a lot emails every day, take phone calls, research and test products for review, write proposals, prepare marketing campaigns, etc.. Oh, and my other job (you know.. the mommy job) requires that I cook, clean, and bathe the kids. UGH!
How does a mom get it all done? I can say all day that I will come up with a routine for Sebastian, Madelyn, and I that will make working, keeping house, and homeschooling happen but I have no idea what that routine would possibly be. Am I being un-realistic in thinking that it could be done? I have to work, I have to pay attention to Madelyn, and I would have to help Sebastian with his lessons and take him places so he will have some social interaction with other children.
I can’t really explain why I don’t like public school. Maybe it’s the lack of individual attention or the lack of communication between the school and parents. I don’t know if I just want to shelter Sebastian from bully’s even though he doesn’t seem to have a problem with bullying, or if I feel like he is not getting a great education in public school. Could I do a better job than his teachers? I don’t know.
If you homeschool or have homeschooled PLEASE let me know how exactly you managed. Email me at alicia @ themommyinsider.com or leave your thoughts via a comment below.
If Sebastian’s teacher is reading, sorry.. it’s not you!
Thanks for reading and letting me vent. Enjoy the new product reviews below.
If you are reading this you are using the Internet and if you are using the Internet your computer is at risk of being attacked by any number of viruses and other security issues which can ultimately cause your computer to crash. i.e. lose all your data. I never leave Madelyn unattended around my computer but in the case that she was able to get to it, I don’t doubt that she could do some serious damage, deleting, and crashing. Yikes!
I recently learned about one product that takes care of all of these threats, Norton 360. Norton has been providing consumers with top notch security and anti-virus software for years. They have taken it a step further by offering a product that allows us to protect our computer and backup our files.
Norton 360 protects you from spyware and phishing sites, and by screening against online identity theft as you ‘surf’ and also helps you back up and de-clutter your computer. Norton 360 will automatically back up data and files and remove the clutter that inevitably builds up by surfing the Internet. When all of this is done, you have a faster, more reliable system.
I installed and set up Norton 360 in very little time and have been happy with its performance and capabilities since. You can customize the way Norton 360 works for you.
Norton 360 is a great solution for those of you who have a family website, blog, or work at home on your computer.
Norton 360 is ideal for new computers and for computers that have a lot of available memory as it tends to use a lot of the computer’s resources while in use.
