I am not gonna do a formal homeschool by all means. For us it is enough by doing some family activities which we regard as 'schooling at home', just for our own sake.
However, it is not impossible for working mommies to practice formal homeschooling with their kids, meaning that giving full commitment and not going to send the kids to either public or private school.
Some Western mothers are successfully run their homeschool by:
- work in shift with their spouse, where each of them take turn to teach the kids at home.
- collaborate with other mommies in the same area, which where they're gonna send the kids when they're off to work. Definitely for schooling!
- get a helper to look after the kids while they're away, just to take care of some minor parts like practical living, hygiene, etc.
- plan for flexible schedules so that it won't effect the kids' lesson when their parents are away.
I don't have any reason (yet) to do all those things. Perhaps one day. Public school in my country still provides good and condusive learning environment.
