Today’s episode is different (though I’m still not sure what “normal” is for the Unsocialized Podcast). It’s also long, probably the longest episode I’ve recorded so far. We’re talking about what I call poverty thinking. I was inspired to address this because of an article I read in which a woman shares her experience and […]

What do you do when your teenager decides to dye her hair pink? My daughter did this recently. And, in true teenagery fashion, she couldn’t just do it on any ole day. No, no. It had to be on the first day of school, thus nearly causing a conniption fit between her and my wife […]

“The two most important days in your life are the day you are born and the day you find out why.” – Mark Twain Why do you homeschool? Silly question, right? Because we want to teach our children. Duh. Well, I submit to you that, if you want to succeed over the long haul with […]

What are the most influential books in your life? Have you shared them with your kids? On today’s episode, I share my list. The Bible – It’s God’s Word to man and has shaped all of human history. I have read it several times through and continue to gain new wisdom with each reading. Frankly, […]

“I wonder what they do teach them at these schools.” –

Your kids won’t be ready for college, the real world, and adulthood. To homeschool your kids, you have to be Wonder Woman! Or, for you Christian over-achievers out there, the Proverbs 31 wife. You have to be able to teach calculus, bake bread from scratch, make a full-time income from your part-time entrepreneurial venture that […]

In today’s episode, I give a brief Common Core update. It’s getting a little frightening, folks. Check out this article. Then, I get into the latest tool for the homeschool parent – the podcast!

In today’s episode, I dare to ask the question, “Is the Ivy League good enough for my kids?” All schools take their cues from the Ivy League. Many of our nation’s leaders come from Ivy League institutions. The last president who wasn’t an Ivy Leaguer was Ronald Reagan. William Deresiewicz writes, “But what these institutions […]

Do you have to break the bank to homeschool your kids? Well, maybe a little bit, but it’s worth it. Let’s face it. If you want to have great kids who grow up to become great adults, it won’t come easy or cheap. Homeschooling has some costs to it; financial yes, but it also costs […]
