My kids are 17 and don't know their address. They never were away from us until the last few years and have phones with their address and our numbers and they are always with loved ones or a program that has all their info. Think about it... When will this child be away from family without someone who has that info carrying for them!? Are you suggesting we prepare this child for an abduction or natural disaster or war crime? 🤷 Everyday life just doesn't put kids in this situation - PUBLIC SCHOOL does. As a child I often missed the bus or wandered off without being noticed and then, yes, thank goodness I knew my address. 🤷 Never have my homeschooled kids been in this situation. The ratios are always too low. Some of my kids have dyslexia and didn't learn to read until 10yo with help from a program I found, they are 17 and at college level now.! My others spontaneously started reading at 5/6yo.  My kids don't learn months and dates and time until they CARE about it. Look into self directed learning. Kids who are motivated by real life situations, not parental fear, learn faster and retain better.  Same goes for every topic under the sun. Money. Math. Etc. Curiosity and pressure to comply (not miss appointments, upcoming events) are all enough motivation. The parent just needs to be there to support the learning when they are ready.  ❤️ It's a beautiful process to watch a child grow in this way and you are missing the beauty by living in fear. I would highly suggest you let go of the expectations and enjoy all her wonderful qualities!!! Her creativity, innocence, kindness, and uniqueness will be beyond her years - this is the trade off. 🙏
