    Hi, Stephanie. Just seeing this now! Sorry! I am in Shreveport, near LSUS. Not too many secular homeschoolers in the area, unfortunately. I am part of ALTHA, you should be able to find it on Facebook. It is a Christian group, but they've been very welcoming to me and my kids. I just started a homeschool magazine, Mindful Homeschooler (which is why I'm finally on here checking my messages). Be in touch!

    Hi Melissa, I saw that you had posted a while back that you were in NW La area. Are you still here? We just moved here from SE Texas and have been having a heck of a time finding other secular homeschoolers in the area. We are N. of Shreveport. I am Stephanie and I have three kids dd 13, ds 9, dd 9. I was hoping to pick your brain on where I may find other like minded homeschoolers in the area.

A Followup to: Why the Romeikes Don't Deserve Asylum

On Friday, I posted "Why the Romeike's Don't Deserve Asylum." The response was quite amazing. In just two days, I received more than 1,000 views. It was shared on Facebook over and over again, and, from what I can see and what I have been told, all the feedback was very positive.

Way to be civil, world!

There are a few items I would like to clarify about the Romeike situation.

The result of all this back and forth on the Romeikes' status

Why the Romeikes Don't Deserve Asylum

The Romeikes flooded my news feed multiple times the past few years. Most recently, on March 3, cries for support once again dominated my Facebook timeline and homeschool groups.

Why the concerns for the Romeike family and not for other struggling immigrants? Perhaps because many American homeschoolers see themselves in the Romeikes - they are a white, Christian family with, originally, five children (now seven children).

The Romeikes are an interesting story

My Essential Homeschooling Strategies from Mindful Homeschooler

Getting to be a great homeschooling parent takes time.

That first year of homeschooling, be prepared to go to bed each night with some fear in your heart. Fear of messing up the very kids you are trying to free. Fear of failing your most beloved children. Fear of being inadequate. I remember feeling anxious much of the time.

It took me about a full year before I realized that we were homeschooling. We were doing it! (We had been doing it all along.) It probably
