My 2 sats bit of push back: Metaphorical prisons like school are in the eyes of the “prisoners”, not the “warden”. If the parent is a shitty teacher, the kid is trapped in solitary confinement for a crime they didn’t commit. If the school is good the kids can nurture strong peer groups that offer a lifetime of social support long after they leave the parent’s nest. It’s often portrayed as an easy moral choice, but there’s a shitload of nuance involved. Teaching all subjects for 12 years is no walk in the park. Being a volunteer teacher’s aid at the kids’ school for12 years can be a better path. You are involved, present and you are personifying the change you want to see in the education system.

God bless the young people trapped in this vortex: study, exhaustion, debt, sacrifice, rinse repeat. Vicious. View quoted note →

Learned more about money, economics, health, fitness, politics and the Internet in 3 years of studying on my own than in 13 years of school.

We’re unschooling. No curriculum. Self led. We facilitate. Basically the curriculum is trash and totally outdated (not all schools but the majority). So we don’t have to spend 12 years subjecting our kids to irrelevant learning (& hopefully have inspired our children to love learning - I think the books they read are proof it’s working) 🤞 Sharing a love of learning is educational for both the parent and the student. And yes, I agree, in some cases the home could be the prison ❤️. I read a book called Educated by Tara Weston and that was powerfully written from a person whose home education was not what we would like to see in the world. However, she still managed to find her way in a very inspiring way. We don’t get to choose our parents and I don’t think any parent is perfect (definitely not me)… we simply do the best we can with the tools and skills we have and hope to do better as we grow 🌱 And hopefully, most of us, can forgive and find compassion for parents, and learn as much as possible for our own children 🧡

Same here. The past 15 years of learning for me have been far more powerful and insightful than all of my traditional education 🙏🙏🙏

You’re right, the good news is most of this is genetic and the kids will be fine regardless of what they live through within reason. Good luck with your “clean slate” experiment - sincerely hope it works out for you all!

Working out well so far (ten years in and my 16 & 18 year olds are amazing 🤩) thank you 🙏😊🫂
