The Mental Benefits of Homeschooling (Podcast 446)

Are we really taking advantage of some of the most important benefits of homeschooling? This is the second in my series on the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual benefits of homeschooling (each in separate podcast episodes). Today we are going to talk about the mental benefits of homeschooling. Most of us are aware that children's mental health (on average) is rapidly declining, but homeschooling gives us an unprecedented opportunity to nurture our children's mental health in the ways that God designed and ways that truly benefit them!
