The Best Of…

by

I thought it would be fun to go through and see what posts of mine have been the highest crowd pleasers. Which ones get the most visits by readers. It’s interesting to see which ones are the top posts, as it shows a snapshot of what people are looking for when they come here.

  • My post Intolerant of Intolerance has been in the top 10 list ever since I wrote it. It’s a short post talking about how some have intolerance for homeschoolers, while at the same time claiming that homeschoolers are intolerant themselves.
  • A more recent post about pre-Planning For Homeschooling has also been getting a lot of attention. It’s a favorite of mine because it talks about finding your family’s rhythm before worrying about planning your day.
  • Negative Influences and Homeschooled Kids is another short and sweet post that a lot of people seem to like. In it I discussed facing negative influences from peers and society on homeschooling kids. I also got a lot of great comments on that post that are worth rading as well.
  • This fun post probably gets most of it’s hit thanks to another post that I linked to. Parental responsibilities and schools Links on to a great post with an interesting name, How To Turn Your Daughter Into A Whore In Two Easy Steps. In my post I talked about shifting parental responsibilities to the schools.
  • Top 5 Mother’s Day Gifts for a Homeschooling Mom was a fun psot that I wrote mainly because of a contest at Problogger to write a top 5 post of any kind. Monthes later and I still get lots of people linking to and visiting this post.
  • Is homeschooling better than formal education? was quite an exciting post meant to stir up some conversations. And it must have worked because it’s remained in the top 10 list month after month.
  • Can schools teach entrepreneurship? It’s an interesting question that many of you must be wondering as well. In my post I asked “How can you teach the masses to be individuals?” What do you think the answer is?
  • The purpose of education is… (fill in the blank) It’s a post where I asked you to think what the meaning of education is to you. What do you think the purpose of education is? It’s something that all parents should think about before making educational choices for their children.
  • One of the Friday questions seems to have drawn in a crowd. The Lonely Homeschoolers and the follow-up post Answers for the Lonely Homeschoolers are nearly dead even in hits. They are great posts for anyone worried about not having a huge homeschooling community around them. Also, I’m still taking questions if you’ve got something to ask. You can find out about that here.
  • And lastly is a great post on how homeschooling can be viewed by some. Is homeschooling anti-feminist? tackles the idea that choosing to homeschool our children mothers are wasting themselves and their talents. It’s worth a thought as much now as when I wrote it.
