Ren commented on Sue Patterson's blog post Homeschooled Voices: Listening to Teens

"Glad to see this! Sounds like a great project Sue. If there is still time, I'll ask my older boys to check it out and maybe respond if they're so inclined. :) "

Profile Information

what does "radical unschooling" mean to you?: Radical unschooling to me, is the concept of applying the same trust that children will learn what they need, when they need it, to everything in life. From eating to chores and television and beyond, learning is learning, trust is trust.

how long have you been unschooling or homeschooling?: Since 1996!!

first names of children: Trevor 1990
Jared 1993
Sierra 1997
Jalen 2001

a little about me: I love hiking, camping, growing things, tea, truffles, beekeeping, sharing about unschooling, makeup artistry, writing, art, planning gatherings with lots of laughter and hugs and talking.

Your Learning in Freedom blog is interesting. I'm glad you shared that Unerzogen article with us; it's reminds of what I constantly see in conventional parenting.

And super nice body art!

At 3:17pm on January 17, 2009, Laura said…: I thought it was great! But the call-in question... WTF?? That was bizarre. So - what's your new project/job you alluded to in the podcast? Can you share? :)

At 3:54pm on January 16, 2009, Laura said…: Hey - listening to your podcast appearance on Relaxed Homeschooler right now!

At 7:05pm on January 12, 2009, Shannon P said…: Hi, I'm Shannon in Bristol, mom to two wonderful, imaginative, creative children. I sent a request to you to be my friend. I forgot to add a personal message, so this is it. : )
I'm just trying to find more moms like me, it's difficult! I've always been the odd one since highschool (shudder to think).
I was "Goth" before Goth was cool!
I've read your blog and you and your family are really interesting! Very cool! I would be happy if you would accept my friend invite.
