Filled Under: college preparation, journal
So how are they doing?
Or rather, how successful was your homeschooling based on their college performance?
A parents worth as homeschooling parents one could reason, could be determined by a student's success in further education... i.e. college.
It almost feels like confession when I reply that the boy is hanging in there. Now that I can add that the girl is kicking butt and taking names, the whole homeschooling experience seems more validated.
But that's pretty unfair, isn't it.
Fortunately for me, I have two kids. If I only had the son, I might very well be self conscious about not producing a super student as a result of my homeschooling... God forbid a homeschooler be an average college student. If I only had the girl, perhaps, I would be accepted as an homeschooling authority because my under-aged homeschooling daughter was doing an excellent job?
Now that I have taken time to balance all my thoughts on the two kids and their experiences, it is clear to me that the results are a product more of the kids personalities, their natural strengths and weaknesses, and their learning styles.
I gather now that son is almost done with general-eds and can get to the meat of his program, that we will see him gain traction.... I also suspect that as long as the girl continues to focus, that she will continue to do very well.
As for my job as a homeschooler, I have to relax in the knowledge that I gave my son a stress free experience as school was becoming a nightmare for him. The fact that he is even in college at all is a huge success... it is now up to him to continue to carve out a success he defines for himself. As for the girl, I really can't take credit for the free spirit she was born with. Who would have known that her ability to not take herself too seriously... or anything else as a matter of fact, would parlay in an ability to navigate higher education with such ease?
So I'm going to stop judging our homeschooling based on semester by semester progress in college. I am going to judge it once and for all as done and complete as I have a son who is well mannered with a strong moral compass, and a girl who is bold, fearless, and caring.
