To any struggling moms out there on the topic of public school or not, as a Christian raised child who spent half her school years in public and half at home, you’re playing a gambling game to put them out there. The only reason I love and pursue Jesus how I do now as a 19yo is because I opted out of public school and God drew me in. I firmly believe I’d be so so lost in the world had I finished school in public. And our school was teeny tiny, but it was still horrendous nonetheless. I don’t mean to cause anyone stress and or anxiety, but I think now more than ever, public school is the most dangerous place of influence for a Christian child. Much love ❤️❤️

I'm thinking of having my daughter at a private christian school. My state gives Grant's so I would only have to pay about 2k a year out of pocket. I feel like homeschooling would be too difficult for me to teach her properly, and I think it would be good for her to be around other kids.

@RebeccaM132 2 ай бұрын

@@tammyrena1214 that’s entirely you and your husband’s decision, mama! My hardest press would be to pray on it. And as Katie and Jenise mentions it here, to make sure your family culture is much stronger and a greater influence than the school! 🥰

@Ana_Cecilia615 2 ай бұрын

Thank you for this. I am delighted to see more people boldly speaking about this. As a public graduate myself, I affirm that it is a jungle that you send your kids to. Think about it. They're in a facility with hundreds of kids their age... all immature, all learning. They form their own social hierarchies and based how you were rated in it effects you the rest of your life. It has a huge impact on you well into your adult years. I will never do this to my children. Call me a helicopter mom all you want. I will instill the love of learning in a safe environment so she can grow into maturity fearlessly.

This worries me so much, when my first was 5 years old and just in school I had sleepless nights about this subject. My second went to school with a lot of drama between my husband and I. Now mine Eldest 7 and her behavior is adapting so much to the whole school culture that I feel like she is playing a different person at home, but doesn't believe me. This is such a concern since I can't undo it, and have 2 more at home, Im skared I have to live with this sinds its not allowed in the Netherlands to pull your children out of school😭

Your mother is so beautiful and such an encouragement to all of us watching! Seeing beauty, wisdom, growth etc...vs the retirement mentality of I'm done with kids lets go to Arizona kinda thinking she is still so immersed in raising kids. In some ways having so many kids still at home keeps her so very fruitful and young still! I love hearing your mother SOOOOO much!! I have watched all her videos on youtube over the years and many of them several times over. Please share her tips as much as possible! Not all of us can afford courses and classes like the Get it all done club so these little snippets are such a blessing!! :D She should write a book or do a series someday! There is such a need for older fruitful women to teach the younger women what it looks like to serve God and their families!

We’ve been watching you guys for years and some of my favorite content is when your sweet mama comes on. We are here in Moscow, Idaho now and have some amazing Titus 2 women who pour into us ladies on a regular basis- Nancy Wilson, Rachel Jankovic, Becky Pliego, etc…we are SO blessed. With that, I wanted to share that your mom has made the biggest impact on me as an individual because she was the FIRST Titus 2 woman I ever watched a couple years after being saved--I think it was back on your KZfaq in 2017 or 2018 when she first came on?? She is such a blessing and a joy! I think I ended up finding other “Titus 2 women” (I didn’t even know what a Titus 2 was at the time) because your mom left such a mark on me. I remember thinking, “WOW, look how much she knows about the Bible! How does she know so much scripture?!” She was actually a huge part of why I felt motivated from that point on to know my Bible inside and out. Please do pass along this message of gratefulness to her! When I think about how I want to be as a mother and grandmother, I think of her. Such an aroma of Christ ❤ God bless you guys!

Love the Q/As with her wisdom and gentle but confident spirit. I pray and work on to carry that sort of confidence. I know it’s confidence in the Lord; so He is definitely working that in myself. Please do more Q/A with her, she is a true blessing to me since I grew up in a broken home and became a Christian later in life. I still don’t know any older godly women but seek encouragement by wisdom from people like your mom, among other favorites of mine (Mrs. Bates, Sally Clarkson podcast). You are blessed and thank you for sharing her wisdom with us.

I love when you and your mom talk! Honestly stirs my faith up so much! You guys so perfectly started the conversation by talking about growth- and it reminds me of the scripture ‭‭2 Peter‬ ‭1‬:‭5‬-‭8‬ ‭ESV ”For this very reason, make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue, and virtue with knowledge, and knowledge with self-control, and self-control with steadfastness, and steadfastness with godliness, and godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love. For if these qualities are yours and are increasing, they keep you from being ineffective or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.“ ‬‬ This is you and your families! God bless you both and may Jesus generously pour out more grace for your callings 🩵
