    In this episode we go on a journey with our family as we share the ups and downs of full-time RVing with teens! We will reflect on the dynamic shift from having younger kids to navigating the challenges of parenting teenagers on the road. Discover the evolving social dynamics, privacy considerations in tight living spaces, and the unique aspects of homeschooling while RVing.Join us as we delve into the teenagers' changing perspectives on friendship, personal space struggles, and the constant effort to organize and declutter in a limited RV space. We discuss the importance of privacy and boundaries, sharing insights on how we've adapted to ensure our teens have their own sense of space and autonomy.Homeschooling on the road comes with its own set of joys and hurdles. We explore our approach, combining structured learning with real-life experiences. Our teens use a variety of resources, from workbooks to hands-on experiments, fostering a love for lifelong learning.As our teens grow, so do their desires for part-time jobs, sports, and other activities. We open up about our decision to temporarily settle down in The Florida Keys to accommodate these interests and the subsequent challenges we faced in adjusting to a more stationary lifestyle.The podcast also sheds light on the yearning for the full-time RV community and the struggles we encountered after taking on workamping in a popular campground. Learn about the impact on our freedom, community connections, and the yearning to hit the road once again.In the final stretch, we discuss the bittersweet realization that our eldest is nearing adulthood, contemplating the limited time left to share the wonders of full-time RVing with our teens before they embark on their own adventures.It's all about the unexpected twists and turns of full-time RVing with older kids. Whether you're a seasoned RVer or considering this lifestyle, our experiences offer valuable insights.

    When it's time to sell everything you've worked for and starting fresh with limited items, it can be hard. We went from a 2,500 sq ft home, 2 car garage, big barn and 7 acres to a 40' 5th wheel (now 42' toy hauler). We had to become minimalist because there wasn't another option if we wanted this lifestyle. It may have brought me to tears but it has been worth it so we can travel full time with our kiddos.You can see more about our lifestyle, check out our favorite products on the road and find remote work at www.OurJourneyToHappiness.comSupport the show

    My middle child joined me today for an informative video. It's easy for parents to say what it's like for their kids to live on the road but it's another when you're asking the kids directly. So far, we've had a couple of meltdowns where they do miss their "old" life but overall they are usually excited for the new adventures.You can see more about our lifestyle, check out our favorite products on the road and find remote work at www.OurJourneyToHappiness.comSupport the show
