Today on The Literary Life podcast, we begin a new series of episodes on The Jungle Book by Rudyard Kipling with our hosts Angelina Stanford, Cindy Rollins, and Thomas Banks! After sharing their commonplace quotes, each of them talks about their own reading histories with Rudyard Kipling's work. Thomas gives us some biographical information about Kipling and sets up the literary period in which he wrote. They then begin talking about the structure and form of this book as it is set up as a series of short stories as beast fables. Angelina shares some of the mythic and fairy tale elements she noticed while reading this first story, “Mowgli's Brothers.” They also discuss some of the challenges we face reading stories written in a different time and place without imposing our current views on all the literature of the period.

Are you facing a move and feeling completely overwhelmed about starting over with your homeschool? Maybe you're wishing for some sense of rhythm and comfort when everything else around you is shifting.In this episode, I talk with Melaney Smith, a pastor's wife and homeschool mom of three, about what it's like to leave everything behind and begin again. Melaney recently moved her family from Stockton, California, all the way to the snowy prairies of North Dakota. She generously shares what it was like to grieve, adjust (and freeze!), and eventually discover her new groove as a homeschooling mom.We talk about what really happens when your routines get tossed upside-down and how to handle the emotional load, the reality of creating community in a completely new place, and how tools like Autopilot became Melaney's secret weapon during the chaos. In her story, you'll find surprising insights about why familiar routines matter so much during big transitions and how flexible habits can truly anchor your family when everything else feels unfamiliar.If you are walking through a big life change or just need some honest encouragement (plus a few laughs about frozen winters and missing good hot sauce), you'll find practical help and camaraderie right here.What you'll learn:What actually happens (emotionally and practically) when you move cross-country with your family and begin homeschooling againHow consistency and familiar homeschool rhythms can help everyone adjust after a big moveWhy planning tools and a supportive community are essential during chaotic seasonsThe basics of “Minimum Viable Days” and why these can be a lifesaver when your regular routines are impossibleCreative ideas for adapting your homeschool to new climates, schedules, and culturesWhy taking three to five years to feel at home is normal—and perfectly okayHow letting go of perfection and choosing to show up faithfully brings peace and growthResources mentioned:Put Your Homeschool Year on AutopilotHomeschool Consistency BootcampPodcast episode on the Minimum Viable DayHomeschool Better Together CommunityFor full show notes and a transcript of today's episode, head to pambarnhill.com/hsbt42

Citing striking data from Crisis Magazine and the Wall Street Journal, Mother Miriam shows that homeschooled children are far more likely to keep the faith, attend Mass, and pursue vocations. She warns that choosing convenience over conviction is not just irresponsible, it's diabolical. From the collapse of public morality to abuses in the Church, Mother calls families to fight back with tradition, sacrifice, and a radical reclaiming of their children's formation.U.S. residents!

"Am I really ready for this?" If you've ever wrestled with doubts about starting your homeschool journey, you're definitely not alone. In this encouraging episode of Everyday Educator, host Kelly Wilt sits down with two seasoned homeschool moms, Lynne and Dede, who share their honest stories about taking the leap into homeschooling—even when they didn't feel completely prepared.

Bullying, unmet special needs education, and system pressure appear to be some of the likely causes of a rise in homeschooling rates. The Ministry of Education's data shows 11,400 children had an exemption from school, favouring home education last year - twice that of 2001. National Council of Home Educators government liaison Cynthia Hancox told Heather du Plessis-Allan resources are stretched, teachers are stressed, there are more children with additional needs, and the system isn't keeping up.

Today's podcast provides details on why, even if the original Epstein list has disappeared, a list is still a fair expectation and why Pam Bondi's comment that there was no evidence of blackmail is balderdash. Furthermore, what are the possible reasons Trump's administration chose to brush this under the rug and lastly, what does the Bible say?

Are you questioning the traditional education system? Curious about homeschooling, creative learning, or how to raise lifelong learners? In this powerful episode of The Homeschool How To Podcast, meet David Alford—a former public high school English teacher who left the classroom to homeschool his children and eventually became an award-winning independent filmmaker.When David's wife entered medical school, he made the bold decision to leave his teaching job to stay home with their daughter. That moment sparked a complete shift in his view of education. What started as a practical move quickly became a transformative journey into child-led learning, educational freedom, and the incredible impact of storytelling in education.You'll hear how David and his family learned history through novels, explored creativity through theater, and turned homeschooling into a lifestyle filled with meaning, flexibility, and purpose. His latest film, Searching for the Elephant, takes on addiction with empathy—rooted in the same storytelling values that shaped his homeschooling philosophy.

Chrissy Stroop, a leading voice in the #Exvangelical movement, brings historical insight and personal experience to a conversation that traces the Christian right's rise to power from the Reagan era to its disturbing alignment with Russian authoritarianism today. This week's bonus show explores how evangelical leaders used strategic alliances, particularly the anti-abortion movement, to unite conservative Christians and Catholics under a single political banner. Stroop explains how this coalition gained momentum during Reagan's presidency and has since embedded itself deeply into U.S. policymaking. Particularly troubling is the influence of Christian nationalists on education through the deregulation of homeschooling, often leaving children vulnerable due to lack of oversight. Stroop also highlights how Christian nationalism, once cloaked in calls for "religious freedom," now openly embraces authoritarian tactics. The alignment with Vladimir Putin's regime, admired by many on the far right, underscores a global trend toward anti-democratic ideologies under the guise of defending “traditional values.” Yet, amidst the bleak realities, Stroop points to reasons for hope. Grassroots activism is on the rise, as communities across the country push back against oppressive legislation and public protests grow more frequent. Organizers are working tirelessly to safeguard democracy and protect civil liberties, especially for marginalized groups targeted by these far-right movements. The episode is a sobering reminder of how deeply Christian nationalism is embedded in American history, but also a call to action. As this bonus show emphasizes, defending democracy requires vigilance, public engagement, and an unwavering commitment to truth. EVENTS AT GASLIT NATION: NEW DATE!

Homeschooling is on the rise in Australia, with some 45,000 children registered across Australia last year. Queensland has experienced the most dramatic growth since the start of the COVID pandemic. Now the state government is reviewing legislation to include the perspectives of the growing homeschooling community. - オーストラリアではホームスクーリングが全国で増加傾向にあり、昨年はおよそ4万5000人の子どもたちがホームスクーリングに登録されました。国内で最も増加傾向にあるクイーンズランド州では、関連法の見直しが進められています。

This week on the podcast, we get real about something we ALL feel at some point (or every day): OVERWHELM. If you're juggling year-round homeschooling, multiple ages, neurodivergent needs, big summer transitions, and the regular chaos of life, this episode is for you.   Here are some highlights and takeaways: Overwhelm is Normal—You're Not Alone! Whether it's decision fatigue, comparing your journey to others, or executive function struggles (for you AND the kids), it's okay to feel like you can't do it all. Colleen reminds us: “Homeschooling parents of neurodivergent kids—overwhelm is expected. This is normal.” Reframe Success Success is NOT getting every single lesson checked off or enforcing perfect handwriting by sixth grade. It's about making progress, fostering curiosity, connecting with your kids, and staying flexible. Celebrate the little wins and focus on connection over perfection. Embrace Flexibility (and Ice Cream for Dinner!) Sometimes you have to toss the plan and go for ice cream, or ditch the math lesson in favor of a walk or a snuggle with a documentary. Homeschooling gives us permission to prioritize what matters most in that moment—connection, not just curriculum. Community Matters You're not meant to do this alone. Colleen invites you to join the free space in The Learner's Lab for support, conversation, and a judgment-free zone to connect with other parents who get it. Remember Your Why Homeschooling is a loving, intentional choice, especially for neurodivergent kiddos who need something different. On hard days, revisit your original “why”—it can help ground you and remind you of the long-term wins. Raising your kids at home is messy and beautiful. So take a deep breath, let go of the guilt, and remember: You are the perfect parent for your kids, and they are the perfect kids for you.   Links and Resources from Today's Episode Our sponsor for today's episode is CTC Math The Homeschool Advantage: A Child-Focused Approach to Raising Lifelong Learners The Homeschool Advantage: A Child-Focused Approach to Raising Lifelong Learners Audiobook Raising Lifelong Learners Membership Community – The Learners Lab Raising Resilient Sons by Colleen Kessler, M.Ed.

This week on The Literary Life, we bring you an episode from deep in the archives in which Cindy and Angelina discussed Katherine Mansfield's short story “The Garden Party.” After a great chat over their commonplace quotes, Angelina and Cindy dig into this week's story. They start with how Cindy found this story and the connections she was making to Little Women. Angelina gives a brief biographical sketch of Katherine Mansfield and highlights how Mansfield's own illness and death give us insight into how she deals with death in this story. Angelina walks us through how she looks at the use of figurative language and images, such as the Garden of Eden. They also touch on “The Garden Party” having the same structure of moving toward a moment of epiphany that we saw in “Araby.”  Cindy brings up the disconnect between the world of the women at home and the working people outside the home, as well as between the classes in this story. They talk about the importance of Laura's new hat as a symbol of one type of person she can become. Another image that Angelina and Cindy take a look at is the descent from the garden into darkness. They discuss the parallels from the beginning of the story and the end of the story, as well as Laura's movement from innocence to experience, from blindness to sight. To view the full show notes for this episode, complete with commonplace quotes, book links, and this week's poem, please visit https://theliterary.life/284. 

We're kicking off our reading series with a big-picture look at reading comprehension, what it is, why it matters, and how it goes far beyond just knowing what happened in a story. In this overview, we'll break down how comprehension supports critical thinking, academic success, and even emotional growth. Plus, we'll give you a preview of the skills we'll explore in the coming episodes, so you can start thinking about where your homeschoolers might need support or challenge.
