Scholé Sisters: Camaraderie for Classical Homeschooling Mamas

Welcome back! Today is the beginning of our spring season and we're kicking off with a discussion on being behind – how do we know if our child is behind? Some say being behind isn't even a thing! And is it important to have standards? Can't my child just develop at his own pace? You're going to love this conversation!

Our guest today is Jami Marstall. Jami has been homeschooling for almost 20 years with Charlotte Mason's rich, living methods. She and her husband John have four children, three of whom have graduated. Jami is not particularly looking forward to homeschool retirement when her youngest graduates.  She firmly believes that mothers are born persons and have minds which hunger for ideas too! Her personal reading stack usually includes works of educational philosophy, history, biography, literary classics, and a detective novel.
In this episode, Abby, Jami, and Brandy discuss AI – yes, Artificial Intelligence. We talk about cheating in co-ops and what is lost as a person and as a community when you substitute a machine's work for your own work. You're going to love this conversation!

Today's episode is a continuation of our ongoing discussion of virtues and vices. Brandy, Mystie, and Abby contend that if classical education is supposed to form virtue, courage and fortitude have to be covered. What does THAT look like? Listen up because they talk all about it!
