I think it would be amazing to have some kind of unschooling gathering near DC!

Meredith replied to Susan's discussion Vaccinations"The Vaccine Guide by Randall Neustaedter gives short descriptions of disease symptoms along with information about the vaccines themselves. It also discusses the use of homeopathics in a positive manner."
C. D. Eagle replied to Susan's discussion Vaccinations"The key is to be well informed. Don't blindly vaccinate because a doctor says too... and also don't just ignore vaccines without researching the information. Each vaccine is unique and you and your child can view the risks and benefits and…"
Kelley Sheppard replied to Susan's discussion Vaccinations"My son seemed to react to every vaccine. I was a young mother, 19, and was told reactions are normal and not to worry.

Profile Information
- what does "radical unschooling" mean to you?
- When I see, hear, or think the words "radical unschooling" I feel an incredible lightness inside, a happiness, a release... I feel free. I'm really new to it as an idea but the more I read and learn to more "right" it feels.
- how long have you been unschooling or homeschooling?
- I've been reading about it for almost 2 years now. My kids are still really little - Marisol is 3 1/2 and Gerry is 6 months.
- first names of children

Gerard Walker (Gerry) 6 months (July 2009)
- a little about me
- I was a teacher before my children were born and now since becoming a mother find myself on a whole new adventure. I'm so grateful that I discovered unschooling and I just love the life we are creating!
My Angel, I can't believe she's 2 Already!

Sally Lopez said… - Susan, I peeked at your blog for a bit. Hang in there with nursing your toddler! I'm tandem nursing my 10 mo and my almost 3 yo boys, and it has been a wonderful experience for all of us. My older son rarely gets jealous since he can have "chi-chi" whenever his brother does. Don't let comments from unsupportive moms get you down. Your daughter will be benefitting from your attentive parenting for years to come. :)
BTW, did you read Rod Dreher's "Crunchy Cons" book?
