When you chose to homeschool, you had grand ideas and assumptions about how it would go. And somewhere admist the curriculum, co-ops, and the many snack breaks, I have noticed a few ways that the home education tends to go awry.No one plans to get off the rails of their homeschool plan, but in today's culture, even the most intentional homeschool mom can fall into a few common traps.Let's pull back the curtain on 3 ways that I have seen homeschool moms at all stages of life and homeschooling get off track and go wrong.

As a Christian homeschool mom, you know that it is important to get "Bible time" each day and cover all the religious topics. But have you thought about how your faith impacts your children?Unintentionally, we can have so much focus on our children that we ignore some hurdles and roadblocks that we have put in their way. Yes, God will use everything for our good and His glory. But what if just creating awareness could help? I think you'd jump at the chance for your faith to be inspiring and not a roadblock to your homeschoolers.Today's episode will scratch the surface of the conversation. And then, I encourage you to spend time in prayer and in God's Word and see what areas of sanctification you can lean into.♥ LeighDESIGN YOUR FAMILY'S UNIQUE HOMESCHOOL THAT YOU'LL LOVE! https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/blueprint CREATE YOUR HOMESCHOOL FAMILY'S HOME TASK SYSTEM https://www.littlebylittlehomeschool.com/tidyhome  GET EXCLUSIVE MENTORSHIP WITH LEIGH https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/mentorship SIMPLIFY YOUR MEAL PLANNING https://littlebylittlehomeschool.com/meal  Website - https://www.littlebylittlehomeschool.comNewsletter - https://littlebylittlehomeschool.myflodesk.com/subscribeInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/littlebylittlehomeschool/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/littlebylittlehomeschool/Little by Little Homeschool podcast is part of the Christian Parenting Podcast Network.

Gone are the Little House on the Prairie days when we, as homeschool parents, didn't have to try and be a step ahead of the culture. Even when we try to create a safe and innocent childhood, we can't stick our heads in the sand. This is not an episode about fear. Rather, it's about encouraging you to be the first ones to reach your children. You GET to teach them about how to live in this world, but not be of it. And this is a great and awesome responsibility, which can be done along with maintaining their innocence. However, it can often feel easier at the time to abdicate or ignore this role. Why? Because it is hard and requires intention and perseverance . We won't be perfect at it, but our children will benefit from any and all ways that we are intentional.

The question is not if you will ever feel burned out as a homeschool mom, it's when. And this time of the year tends to be a common time for moms to feel like this. There are a few factors that contribute to burnout and the key to overcoming it, so you can stay in the game with homeschool, is to recognize the signs, get to the root cause, and create a reasonable solution. Burnout should not lead to shame. Rather, it should bring us to our knees so that you can surrender the day and your homeschool to Jesus. All is not lost. What if He has a greater plan for you that is on the other side of the burnout feeling?
