In this episode of the Homeschool Conversations podcast, I was delighted to chat once again with Elsie Iudicello, a homesteader, homemaker, and homeschool mom to four teenage sons. Our conversation was rich with wisdom, encouragement, and practical insights for homeschooling and parenting in the teen years.

Elsie shares how her approach has evolved over 17 years, how she cultivates wonder and wisdom in the teen years, and how to walk with kids through grief, hardship, and hard questions with grace and prayer.

Listen and be encouraged by Elsie’s thoughtful insights on parenting, discipleship, and letting go of unrealistic expectations.

Topics We Cover:

• - Homeschooling through the teen years
• - How to handle resistance with wisdom
• - Parenting during grief and loss
• - Talking to kids about hard topics
• - The power of prayer in parenting
• - What really matters most in homeschooling
• - How to reset a hard homeschool day
