As go the way of life challenges, combined to make a living, while at the same time to educate your children at home, that one of its most difficult. If you do not educate the families of the house some years, where the parents go to work and employ someone to supervise and educate their children at home for them. For most families these days, made the school much of the free childcare and that is what many parents, making it capable of living while earning children use. So what do you do when you do not have access to hours without children of working time each day? What can you do if you are a parent and / or take home very young or disabled children? difficulties, in fact, but certainly not impossible, to judge by the number of families I met, obviously successful and happy to do that. There are many ways to reach families, although the process is the change in their lifestyle often taken over several years. As you can see the handle? Balancing revenues and costs. In absolute numbers, of course, it does not matter how much money we have so long as they have less than our cost. Most of us can decide, in large part, our costs are and therefore how much of income we need, but if our income, it follows that our costs must be reduced. If I wanted to take my two boys from school in 1998 because I already had a small home business, but it soon became obvious that I am not able to go on. My work, although at home and part-time, lasted until about 30 hours per week, he spent a little far from home. I was not happy to spend as much time or work away from my children when they were young (age 8 and 6). So I quit my job to bring home. My we have an income (I am married and my husband worked), which is insufficient to cover our costs in the state. We decided, part of the country, where they can live cheaper downshift, buy a house and cheapest reductions in materialistic terms. In the months and weeks that followed, I read many books and websites on home education and, equally important, as it turned out that I started to learn something called “simplicity voluntary. The lessons of voluntary simplicity are frugal consumption, ecological awareness and personal growth. But this change of life path and priorities, including education of my children are now assessed on my quest for material goods, felt like withdrawal or even poverty. I realized that there were seeds of resentment threatened because of our decision to raise to germinate. I had to stop feeding. I needed a change of perspective. It was a revelation for me to discover that the road was a voluntary simplicity is not poverty at all, but a simple path, freer way of life for us more time together. I quickly realized that this may lead to a real opportunity for us, a much richer, more meaningful life emotionally, physically and spiritually.
