This resonates so much with the reality of homscholing life. The wisdom of knowing when to let smething slide is often more valuable than constant correction. It takes real discernment to understand that sometimes preserving peace and enrgy matters more than winning every small battle.
Thankyou for these great words of wisdom you are supplying every day Catherine. I just wanted to say thanks and much appreciated. I hope you are all settling in to your new life and taking your own advice regularly!

On a related note, my wife has often said the best parenting advice she ever received from an older mom was:
"Say 'yes' as often as you can; because there will plenty of time when the answer will HAVE to be 'no.'"

Thank you Zena, that was so lovely to read. It is always easier to give out good advice than to take it yourself…!
