Why Broke Boston Homeschooling?
Be yourself; Everyone else is already taken.
— Oscar Wilde.
Do you ever read optimistic homeschooling advice that tells you to go out and join groups, meet other homeschoolers at park days and homeschool events at local institutions? Do you find that those events and park days are often out of reach because of distance from public transportation, or the cost?
Do you hear about other people belonging to homeschool coops but you can’t find one you can afford, and/or get to?
Do you read advice that reassures you’ll find your tribe? Are you a second choice homeschooler and your reasons for homeschooling don’t fit with typical “tribes?”
When you talk with local homeschoolers, do you ever feel like the others just don’t understand your challenges or what it means to live in Greater Boston with relatively limited resources?
If you identify with a lot of this, then stick around, this blog is for you and me!
