When trying to decide if homeschooling is a viable choice for you financially, the first question you need to ask yourself is, “can we get by on just one salary?” While it is perfectly possible to work at home part time while homeschooling your child, one of you will likely have to give up full time work outside of the home.
Homeschooling often means cutting back financially, but for most families, this is well worth it. The very fact that one of you (usually the mom) doesn’t have the expenses of professional attire, commute and daycare, will save you a lot of money. Other “sacrifices” may not be sacrifices at all: going back to a simpler lifestyle, cooking at home, having family dinners together and focusing on spending time together and on strengthening your family relationships are all very good things indeed regardless of whether you homeschool or not.
