How
to Get Your Husband to Back Your Business

Single
and Homeschooling
Many single parents, who might otherwise consider homeschooling,
believe their marital status excludes them from this wonderful
educational option. But with perseverance, flexibility and a
strong network of support, single parent homeschooling can be
done, and done well.
Single-Mom
Homeschooling
Testimonies by Margaret, Kathy, and Katrina. The sky is the limit
as to what a single Mom can do. I do recommend the children
be in at least 7th grade or older to be at home by themselves.
Additionally, I would recommend children be mature enough to
obey to complete assignments, chores and to keep a low profile
while Mom is working.

Outside
Are

children should not be left alone even for a few minutes.
