Home School Heartbeat Radio Program

What are the results for gifted children who are homeschooled? For an answer to that question, join Mike Smith on today's Home School Heartbeat.

Mike Smith:
Many gifted children are thankful that their parents chose to homeschool them.


The social environment of the public school can be a tremendous impediment to a child who wants to learn—especially a gifted child.


As more parents of gifted children choose homeschooling, the greater the chance that more children will realize their potential and make significant contributions to society because of the freedom to explore their genius in homeschooling. Many of today's inventions come from gifted children who ended up making crucial contributions to society. With a moral foundation, gifted children can be a tremendous force for good in the world.


Parents are the key, however. A child who's struggling in school because he is not challenged will grow up resenting his wasted years. The parent needs to realize this. Their potential can be realized by training them at home. The future is bright for gifted children who find their niche and are able to excel because their parents had the courage to homeschool them.


Thank you for joining us this week as we talked about the gifted child in homeschooling. And until next time, I'm Mike Smith.
