The most common mistakes parents make when home schooling are overscheduling, underscheduling, disorganization, unrealistic expectations and trying to do it alone. Organization is important when trying to schedule activities. Don't try to pack in too many things or parents and kids will both get frustrated, but not enough things to do will lead to boredom. Pushing children to perform beyond their capabilities is a common mistake make by home schooling parents. Most importantly, don't try to home school alone. Seek out other home schooling parents and groups to exchange ideas and have a sounding board for those days when it seems like too much to handle.
