Can working parents homeschool?
Yes–they can and do! Working while homeschooling adds a degree of difficulty, but motivated parents can make it work. Special work arrangements and work flexibility can help tremendously. Some ideas include working at home, working part-time, taking your child to work with you, and depending on your child’s age, working while your child sleeps. Some families have special arrangements with extended family to help manage homeschooling and working. “I do believe that homeschooling is viable in just about any situation as long as the family is flexible and does not expect their “homeschool” to be just like anyone else’s homeschool.
