Not just for US anymore

by

Timberlakebaptist.orgI’ve noticed that when I am spending time online looking for other homeschoolers the majority I find are Americans. Maybe more Americans feel the need to get online and talk about their homeschooling experiences, or maybe I’m just not looking in the right places.

But homeschooling is not just an American issue, as many have seen from the Busekros news. It can be exciting to find news about homeschooling in other countries; learning about parents in places I have never been and living lives I will never understand and yet making the same choices that I make here. News like Homeschooling triples in the UK and Home education catching on in Canada remind me that the choice to homeschool really isn’t so odd afterall.

    I really enjoy reading homeschool blogs from around the world. It doesn’t matter where they’re from, I still can learn something new from them.
