With so many families making the decision to leave the formal education system and take their own path through life, it also means there are a whole lot of grandparents out there going...

Hold on, what’s happening here?! We have a comprehensive, effective school system designed specifically to educate us in all the areas we’ll need to fully prepare for life. Why on earth would anyone walk away from that? And...what’s going to happen to my grandchildren now that they’ve had the opportunity to go through that system taken away?

It...just seems a bit crazy.

Grandparents, I hear you. So today, in this episode, I’m sitting down to have a chat with *you*.

p.s. if you enjoy this episode, I've written a guide on this topic called The Home Schooling Guide for Grandparents. There’s lot of the same material covered, but the process of reading and reflection is quite different to listening. Take a look :-)
