After a year like no other, parents everywhere are considering a variety of educational alternatives for their children. At the top of many lists is the option to homeschool.

I asked LaNissir James, a homeschooling mom of seven, for her advice to parents at this very unique time. James is also a high school consultant at the Home School Legal Defense Association (HSLDA), which supports homeschooling families.
