Homeschooling update:

We're only a week into it, but there are definitely some things going on.

- He sleeps MUCH later. Normally 6-7 AM on non-school days, now 9 AM every day. Very unusual for this kid.

- He wants to be outside more.

- He spends more time just doing little random projects. Today he's making clubs and vampire stakes out of tree limbs.

- He added Spanish and Portuguese to the school program.

- A few days without a time limit on everything has him a lot more relaxed.

Hi mrecheese nice to meet you 🤝🏴‍☠️

It’s great to see how the flexibility of homeschooling is already having such a positive impact! More sleep, creativity, and even expanding his language skills—sounds like a much more balanced and fulfilling routine. Without the strict time constraints, it’s like his natural curiosity and energy are really being nurtured. Homeschooling can definitely unlock a lot of potential that traditional school systems sometimes overlook.

Glad it seems to be going well for you nostr:nprofile1qqst5x9k23f40nlcu5c6enlp6cy6g8hnqglm5pcak89ltfn5frqeq3spz9mhxue69uhkummnw3ezuamfdejj7qg6waehxw309ac82unpwe5kgcfwdehhxarj9ekxzmny9uq3samnwvaz7tmev9exumrpv3ujuv33d45kctndv5hsm85fkf. I hope other parents begin to realize just how much unecessary pressure the traditional schooling system places on kids.
