Welcome to The Smiling Homeschooler Podcast! We are back with a great new episode this week! Todd just got back from a convention in Fort Worth Texas, and while he was there he had some great conversations with homeschooling moms. These included questions about whether or not you should homeschool your child even if they want to go to school, whether is it okay to just graduate your child even if they haven't finished everything, what counts as 180 days of school, and more!  This should be another encouraging episode and we hope you enjoy!
