I read these answers with interest, I have a son who will be six this winter and a son who will be 4 . I love reading to them but they arent interested much in any books that are longer, or that dont have pictures on every page. How do you get a 4...

Or he's worried and thinks you must be clueless not to realize how important school is. As a hired hand he's undoubtedly come across his fair share of people who feel trapped in low paying jobs because they dropped out of school (and he may be one...

I was writing out a recipe to share on my blog...when I first found this recipe I followed it mostly step by step and ingredient for ingredient. It's an amazing recipe, as is. Sometimes I don't have all the ingredients, the required equipment, or ...

Something that I find helpful during any kind of transition is to remind myself that I'm in the middle of a transition. That sounds silly, maybe, but I can get stuck in my own head, thinking doom and gloom and craziness, and then start beating mys...

Let go of the idea that you've "failed already" - your kids are happier? Then you've succeeded. Everything else is icing on the cake. If you're telling people you are unschooling, maybe switch to saying "homeschool" instead. If people want to kno...

Kerry I have offered a few times and I am inviting you again to come over to Rochester and meet some homeschoolers. It will make you feel better. Another plus is that we are unschoolers that are also Dairy Farmers like you!

Hmm, I am completely new here and still learning how this all works! but I would say it is having my child learn things as he is ready and at a pace that will fit him.
how long have you been unschooling or homeschooling?
Still learning about unschooling but have some experience in homeschooling the traditional way!

Andrew (12), Ashlynn(12), Austin(12), Abbie(11), Emily(9), Evan(5) and Cameron(3).
