How to Drive Yourself Crazy as a Homeschooler

It happens innocently enough. I'm talking with other homeschoolers or perhaps reading about another homeschooling family. At first I may smile and nod in agreement with whatever is being discussed.  Later the doubt and insecurity sets in.

That mom spends all day, every day doing school work with her children and still cooks dinner from scratch every night while maintaining an immaculate home?!


That family spent their entire summer on an educational road trip across the United States?!

Her kid is two grade levels ahead for his age and learning Latin this year. Latin?!

If you want to drive yourself crazy as a homeschooler, then you should take every opportunity to compare yourself to other homeschooling families.
