Summary: <a rel="NOFOLLOW" href="http://ultimateradioshow.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/1423543054026.jpeg"></a>Let's be real folks! It's February and the mid-year homeschooling doldrums can hit any of us. One of our listeners sent us a great email with five questions all about homeschool challenges and wanting to throw in the towel. As we read through the questions he asked, we decided to combine all of them into one podcast and return to a popular theme and call this episode, I Love Homeschooling But I'm Totally Burned Out. Don't be confused. You may think this is an episode for just the homeschool moms, but moms and dads alike are going to relate to the questions and discussions. As we answered his questions, we also turned our microphones onto other loyal listeners and asked three seasoned homeschool moms how they survive homeschool burnout in their home. These moms did not disappoint! Their answers were terrific and timely as we all approach midyear burnout in our homeschool classrooms.
