Asking for help. I would like to start homeschooling my Son. What steps and what program should I look to.
🐸 HELP a FROG 🐸
I would like to do it ASAP. I can’t do the government programming anymore. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Frens!
Ha ha Love it! Yes, I could have searched, however, I trust an anon here to give me a straight answer and bust my girl balls while doing it! I adopted my daughter when she was 11 and so much "damage" already that I just feel like it's a race against time. She's 16 now .. Thank you for your response and congrats on your fine young man!
We had nothing but boys. I taught them essential guy skills like welding, carpentry and car repair, plus how to do hard shitty work without complaining. I wouldn't know what to teach a sixteen year old girl unless she was ultra tomboy.
But her mama knows, and it'll all be just fine. What are her interests? What's she care about or desire to do in life?
Blunt question, but is she one of those vain girls all into beauty and makeup? Or maybe just anti globoho poison personal care products and interested in all natural stuff? I ask because I know of one "girlly" skilled labor option.
Encourage her to look into becoming an all natural beauty product formulator. Big money in that line of work. The market is all but insatiable.
We're tangentially involved in the industry and it's booming. Like up 700% in the last two years BOOMING!
Three industries historically thrive in down economic times. Alcohol, chocolate, and beauty products.
One of the best places on earth to buy the stuff to start self training in that field happens to be just down the road from me. Https://bulknaturalswholesale.com Dude sells some crazy products I've never even heard of, but apparently are the bees knees for advanced formulators.
The industry is comprised probably 90% of self trained people. There is virtually zero barrier to entry and self employment is an option. Just spitballing here, but none of that sounds too terrible to me.
Maybe pick a few ingredients and whip a simple body butter recipe together? Fun little mother daughter project. Don't even pitch it as anything besides just something to do. Guage the interest. If there's any, encourage further study of ingredients and there effects.
Who knows. There's no shortage of how to vids for making basic stuff, and no limit to the money to be made if you happen to come up with the best things ever. Start making stuff you both can use, build skills from there.
If she cares at all. If not, try something else. Learning skills is never a waste of time.
She wants to be a pilot. She's in ROTC and is trying to decide between Air Force or Navy. Her best classes are and have been math and science. I'm the tomboy, so I'm teaching her all about tools (including power), auto repair (I have an older Jeep), gun safety, and archery, etc. My biggest failure so far is her work ethic. So I'm thinking of her getting a job and homeschooling would hopefully get the point across.
Also, thank you for the ideas! She and I both enjoy "concocting" things and I've been making my own laundry detergent for quite awhile..
Kenseth.....as in the 17 car?
You'll appreciate this maybe....
I can't watch noosecar anymore. I can't and I won't and I won't and I can't. I haven't been able to for 15ish years now.
Did you know YouTube has full season playlists of complete races from the good ol' days?
We're currently six races deep into the 1987 season. None of us were watching back then so it's all a surprise. What a good show it's been so far. Schrader is running awesome. Kulwiki's been a dumpster fire and it's fun finding new reasons to boo the Bodines all over again.
10/10 would recommend. There's so much good old racing I've never seen to waist a minute on the current nonsense.
Yes #17. I haven't watched in years myself. Never really accepted his change to #20 and then he retired. Current nonsense is right. Too much compromise (politics) to gain fans($$). I'll have to check out some of those old races!! I had a bunch of uncles who raced at the local track, so much of my youth was spent inhaling burnt rubber and high octane!
I was lucky enough to have three short tracks within an hour back in the mid 90s. Good times.
Closest I get to that vibe now is watching the show cleetus McFarland puts on down at the freedom factory on youtube. It's a sick show, but watching on TV just isn't the same.
I'm from the north east where we had big block isma supermodifieds weekly. My kids just don't understand what that would FEEL like.
