In a video I recorded for the Asli Shiksha YouTube channel I asked Dinkar and Srikant what they remembered from their homeschooling journey. How did they prepare for their 10th board exams? What was their normal 'school' day like? Both of them found it difficult to answer these questions. They found the academic part of homeschooling so unremarkable, so easy, that they remembered very little of it. They were living a happy, busy life and 'schooling' that is such a burden for most parents and school-going children passed by without them noticing it too much.
If homeschooling is not an option, it is probably time for parents and children to work towards reducing the stress of 'schooling' by moving into the Asli Shiksha paradigm of 'Learning is natural'.
