Profile Information

what does "radical unschooling" mean to you?
Freedom, autonomy, enjoyment.
how long have you been unschooling or homeschooling?
Emily has never been "schooled", it did take awhile for me to be comfortable with the terms unschooling, and radical unschooling. I find it unsatisfiying to be defined by what we don't do? : ) I used the term eclectic for awhile. ..If I were to give what we do a name I would call it eclectic natural learning.
