For those of you who don't know me, I am the homeschooling mom of 5 pretty great kids.
My oldest turned 23 recently and knew for a long time that he wanted to be a police officer. He took one dual-credit Psychology course during his senior year of homeschooling through Longview Community College and wasn't a fan. Part of the problem was that I signed him up too late, which meant he could only get the online option, and he could only get the double-time option. Ugh. So much reading in a short amount of time each week did not put a thirst for college into him. So ... he got his Personal Trainer Certification, worked at his lawncare job, and worked out many hours a week. He went into Police Academy at age 21 and now has a job as a police officer.
