Confession is good for the soul—and necessary after dealing with an 11-year-old who hates math! Confessions of a Catholic Homeschool Mom is all about finding the strength to get through the challenges of schooling your own brats…brood.

Karen Salstrom, mom of seven children, invites frazzled moms everywhere to join her on a journey into homeschooling.

Here, you can find answers to common questions:

• What is homeschooling?
• Is it worthwhile?
• Can I do it?
• How can I do it?
• Where does this fit into family life?
• And most of all, how do I keep my spirituality… and my sanity? 

Though written tongue-in-cheek, chapters unfold around theSacrament of Reconciliation from “Examination of Conscience” all the way to “Penance and Absolution.”  Full of her own personal stories as well as practical advice, Confessions of a Catholic Homeschool Mom is an accessible tool for moms who now more than ever find themselves swimming in the unfamiliar waters of homeschooling.
