the network for radical unschooling families

Introduce yourselves!

Thanks so much to all that have joined this little group within a group within a group. :)
I am Bekah. I live in Olney, home of the white squirrels.
I have two always homeschooled boys, Micah and River (5 and 1).
I am probably the only unschooler in my little rural town and even finding other homeschoolers has been a challenge.
I find the online community a lifeline for good or ill. :)
We are an environmentally conscious family, vegetarian, and grassroots recyclers in our community.
We enjoy local music and arts and gardening and are long gone bibliophiles. We came to unschooling through the attatchment parenting/breastfeeding/co-sleeping etc backdoor.
I am also the only momma in Olney that I have met who lives and parents this way.
Happy to meet others and enjoy the group.

just like unschooling...you have an interest you go for it and learn!
we enjoy bikes as well and hope to save enough to purchase a few for environmental reasons. we live in a small town so driving to places that are close enough to bike but too far to walk with little ones just really bothers me...so welcome!!; ▶ Reply to This
