S4 Ep #97 - Is School preparing kids for real life of just to memorise and regurgitate Info? Here is why i've chosen to homeschool my kids.

Season 4 Episode 97 Published 2 months, 1 week ago
Description

I’m not anti-school… but something about it didn’t sit right with me.

In this episode, I share why I’ve chosen to homeschool my kids (for now) and why this conversation goes far beyond school vs homeschool.

Because this isn’t just about education.

It’s about what kids are actually being taught… and what’s being missed.

I started noticing how early kids begin to:
- look for the “right” answer
- second guess themselves
- feel pressure to get things right

And it made me question…

Are we raising kids who can think for themselves or kids who are really good at following instructions?

In this episode, I unpack:

  •  why I’m not anti-school, but I do question the “one size fits all” model 
  •  the difference between memorising vs thinking 
  •  how early conditioning impacts confidence and self-trust later in life 
  •  and why emotional intelligence is the piece I believe is missing 

Whether your kids are in school or not — this conversation matters.
