As homeschool parents, one of our greatest challenges is finding the balance between preserving our children’s innocence and equipping them to navigate a world that often runs counter to our values. How do we shelter without isolating? How do we guide without overwhelming? As we strive to prepare homeschool kids for the real world, it’s vital to do so without rushing them out of childhood.
In this episode, we’ll explore practical ways to nurture discernment, build resilience, and protect their hearts—while still giving them the tools they’ll need to thrive beyond the safety of home.
