In this episode of Living Homeschool Life, Scott and Becky Aniol address some common questions and challenges facing homeschooling families today. From the pressure of constantly changing curriculum to understanding different Charlotte Mason approaches, they offer thoughtful guidance rooted in long-term faithfulness rather than quick trends.
They discuss how to deal with curriculum FOMO and the temptation to always look for something better, while encouraging parents to stay consistent with what is working. They also explain the differences between Living Heritage and AmblesideOnline, helping families think carefully about what best fits their goals.
Finally, they consider what children should memorize—and why it’s worth prioritizing rich, meaningful content over jingles and disconnected facts.
