About unschooling
Jan. 21st, 2007 01:16 pmHey there... we're alive but been way busy, with the start of school, Bill working on a grant proposal, and Clayton's birthday (we had a pile of boys spend the night, and the weather very nicely obliged with about 5 inches of lovely powdery wet snow... probably the best birthday present a 13-year-old boy could get!).
In the last couple of weeks, I've had a few folks asking about our homeschooling experiences. A moderator of an unschooling list I'm on asked me to post about my older kids, because we've had a bunch of younger families join and there's been a wave of insecurity and doubt running through the group (not uncommon among parents, incidentally, no matter what path you choose!). So I'm going to paste in that post here, because it sums up nicely where each kid is right now (and makes me extremely happy to see them all following their dreams!).
( What the kids have been up to... )
