b"A while back I asked, \\u201cIf you could ask a veteran homeschooling mom anything, what would it be?\\u201d\\nToday I am answering three of those questions:\\xa0\\nHow do you help/encourage teens to explore options after high school? I have a junior in high school that doesn\\u2019t have a clue what direction he wants to go. He goes between engineer and car mechanic\\u2026..very different paths!\\nAs a former public school teacher, the homeschool world was never ever something I expected to find let alone to admire it.\\xa0\\nMy question is how do you discern when you\\u2019re trying to force something on your children and when it\\u2019s God calling you out of your comfort zone?\\xa0\\nI loved the last half of your new book, especially the boy part! I know all these things but how specifically did you \\u201csay fewer words!?\\u201d I am horrible at talking too much!!\\nPodcast mentioned:\\nNavigating the Post High School Years\\nhttps://www.durendawilson.com/podcast-1/episode/c9196c29/navigating-the-post-high-school-years-podcast-32\\n(If you haven't checked out my new book, The Four Hour School Day please do that!\\xa0 As a 25+ year veteran homeschooling mom of 8, I share WHY you can give your kids a robust education in four hours a day or less!)"
