Assuming this article to be accurate, I love the fact that French parents emphasize the importance of themselves having “me time”. Big fan of that idea, especially as a homeschooler. You can become so consumed in this “job” of homeschooling that you forget the importance of doing something for yourself. That’s not selfishness. That’s vital refreshment.
