Welcome to the Smiling Homeschooler podcast. Today, we’re diving into a conversation that hits close to home for so many of us homeschooling families—especially when it comes to the things our kids are believing. Maybe you've heard it from your own child—or maybe just caught it in their tone: "Other kids are getting a better education than me..." "I’m missing out on all the fun..." "Going to real school wouldn’t change me..." These kinds of thoughts can sneak in quietly, but they carry a lot of weight—and if we’re not careful, they can start shaping how our kids see themselves, and their education. So today, we’re unpacking some of the most common lies our homeschooled kids believe! This is going to be another encouraging episode!
