Do you have a student whose dream is to head to college? How do you know if she’s ready? Have you imparted everything you wanted to teach him before he heads off to work on a degree, live on campus, and make all of his own choices?
Join Fletch and Kendra on this episode as they drive one of their sons 11 hours away from home to start college at Grand Canyon University in Phoenix. They discuss academic preparedness (was homeschooling enough?), as well as financial, spiritual, and cultural preparedness. Carol Topp, The Homeschool CPA, also joins them to talk about smart ways to launch your kid financially.
Let’s go back to college!
Join Fletch (from theMangoTimes) and Kendra (from Preschoolers and Peace) for the HomeschoolingIRL podcast every two weeks as they interview guests and talk through some of the goofiness they have experienced in nearly two decades of Homeschooling In Real Life.

Kendra and Fletch,
Great podcast. Thanks for letting me be a part of it!
I appreciate how Kendra talked about how purposeful and difficult it is to intentionally let go during the senior year!
It takes practice and I’m still practicing “backing off” even while they are in college and post-college.
Fun to have you on this episode Carol!
