The most important details are that this type of post is common in Facebook support groups for homeschool parents, and that the people who say these things don't even give it any thought after the conversation has ended. This type of post can cause a lot of distress for the person who is homeschooling their child.

Remember why you homeschool. This reason varies for everyone. Maybe you have one big reason. Maybe you have several reasons. Take some time now to write them down. Better yet, create a homeschool mission statement that details fully: 1. Why you homeschool 2. What you plan to achieve during your homeschool journey 3. How it benefits your family as a whole 4. How it benefits each individual family member.

Remember Your Why
