It’s been pretty well documented by me (and pointed out by others now and then) that I am far from perfect. Sometimes I lose my temper with my kids. Sometimes I am not as diplomatic as I should be when someone disagrees with me. Sometimes I say things that outright offend people, whether intentionally or not. You get the idea.

One of the most insidious aspects of our compulsory schooling system, in my opinion, is the idea that certain things must be learned between the ages of 5 and 18 or…what? Be lost to us forever? The truth of the matter is that if something is forgotten over the summer it was never learned in the first place. A high grade on a test does not prove that l...

Your resource for all things unschooling. Skip to primary content. Skip to secondary content. April 12, 2015. When we started unschooling, our focus was limited to our kids.
