The challenge we face today is balance.

How much do we require our children to learn or commit to memory?

How much do we focus on making them life-long learners and problem solvers? 

Early homeschoolers struggled to put together enough curriculum to homeschool. They made do and made their own. 

Homeschoolers are literally drowning in curriculum options now.

And that doesn't even get into AI.
