Homeschooling Neurodivergent Students: From Struggle to Success

Description

What if the learning challenge that terrifies you most could become your greatest gift as a homeschooling parent? Join host Lisa Bailey in this heartfelt conversation with veteran homeschool moms Karin Carpenter and Courtney Bradshaw as they share their journeys educating children with dyslexia, ADHD, and other learning differences.

In this honest and encouraging episode, you'll discover:

  • Early warning signs of learning challenges (including surprising indicators like eye rubbing and trouble with stairs)
  • Practical accommodations that worked in real classical homeschool families
  • Why labeling a child's diagnosis too early—or too late—can both have consequences
  • How sensory input, movement, and alternative learning methods benefit ALL learners, not just those with diagnosed differences
  • The surprising ways learning challenges deepened these mothers' faith and revealed their own pride
  • Why home education may be the ideal environment for neurodivergent learners
  • Real stories of children with dyslexia earning master's degrees and heading to law school

Karin and Courtney offer practical wisdom without sugar-coating the struggles, reminding us that our children are not their diagnoses. Through tears, prayer, and persistence, these moms learned to become students of their own children—and in the process, the Lord transformed their hearts.
