I was homeschooled K through 12 whole way die hard since day one. Um I didn't
00:00:08
do any side of any kind of outside schooling really um until college. Um well I took VC classes um during high
00:00:18
school as well but it's still college. Um but started off with my mom just really wanting to homeschool and give it
00:00:25
a try. Um, both my parents were public schooled, so it wasn't something that
00:00:29
they had experience with. Um, but they thought, you know, hey, this will be kind of a fun thing to try out. And I'm
00:00:35
the firstborn, so guinea pig. Um, yeah. But they decided they wanted to do it. My mom really loves the like curriculum,
00:00:43
the um guide, the well-trained mind, which is like a book on stuff. And I don't know, I it the uh importance
00:00:50
eludes me, but but um I know my mom really loves it and she swears by it. So, if we homeschool, if me and my
00:00:57
husband homeschool our daughter one day, I'll probably look into it
