135 | Showing Them The World With Michael Gosselin

Is curiosity alive and well in your kid’s life?

As a Dad, I know that kids ask why the way too many times to count, but I also know the importance of them continuing to do it.  It can be really hard to just let your kids explore because often that means something gets broken if your house is anything like mine.

But I know one thing as a dad this is where our focus needs to be but with a measured effort to keep things from getting broken, and if it does teach them to do better.

.

Topics Covered:

  • Making the choice to home school
  • Benefits of homeschooling
  • Keeping kids curiosity alive
  • Why is it important to let kids be kids
  • Help your kids learn they have value to others
  • Becoming a stay at home dad
