How Will Homeschooling Affect Our Family Life?

FAQs - General

By catechizing their children, parents usually find that their own faith is renewed and deepened. Parents often reflect that homeschooling helps them to aspire more fervently in the acquisition of virtue since they cannot expect from their children that which they themselves do not practice. Patience, self-discipline, charity, etc. are suddenly practical necessities.
Because home education encourages parents to talk with their children about the important issues of life, the parent-child bond is strengthened. This is an especially crucial advantage during the teen years.
Children and parents begin to work together in managing domestic tasks which develops a spirit of cooperation. The children become responsible, independent, and confident in their abilities to care for themselves and their environment. They see themselves as vital, contributing members of the family.
