Jennifer looked like she was ready to collapse, joking about how much she dreaded stepping into the role of teacher. But hey, that's parenting in 2020 for you—exhausting yet relatable as ever.

Her kids, six-year-old Autumn and four-year-old Atticus, were in full-on chaos mode in the background, making it clear that homeschooling is no joke.

From Frustration to Finding Her Groove
Back in early April, Jennifer appeared on The Talk and spilled the beans about her initial struggles. "I was really frustrated at first, honestly," she confessed to hosts Sharon Osbourne, Marie Osmond, Carrie Ann Inaba, Sheryl Underwood, and Eve. "I couldn't figure out if I had to teach them exactly the way their teacher did, or if I should do it strictly, or something else entirely." It's a question many parents have faced, and Jennifer wasn't afraid to admit that she didn't have all the answers right away.
But here's where things started to turn around. A friend gave her some game-changing advice. "Look, this is your opportunity to teach your kids your way," the friend told her. "Nobody's doing anything the way they normally would right now." This shift in perspective was a game-changer for Jennifer. Suddenly, she wasn't just trying to mimic what the teachers did; she was creating her own unique approach to education. And guess what? It worked.
