Welcome to a new episode of the Simple Homeschool podcast, continuing this year's series with my 18-year-old son Jonathan!

* This episode is sponsored by Outschool and Ivy Kids!

Jonathan was homeschooled from K-12th grade, and in this episode we are answering a question we get a LOT: What do you do when your homeschooled child doesn't want to do an assignment, chore, etc?

In Episode 110, you’ll hear us discuss:

  • How to handle pushback depending on the age of your child (littles, tweens, teens)
  • Thoughts on separating academics from household duties
  • Why you should go to Thailand and not Bogota (listen in for more context, LOL, it's a helpful analogy!)
  • How Jamie forced Jonathan to take the SAT twice (and what he thinks about that now looking back #meanmom)

Would you like to submit a homeschooling question for Jamie and Jonathan to answer in an upcoming episode? If so, email it to jamie@simplehomeschool.net with "Podcast Question" as the subject line.
