School is one option for education; homeschooling is the second, and unschooling is the third.

Many parents are frustrated by the school system, perhaps because of bullying, crowded classrooms, and outdated, dull, online courses. Disengaged learners that have no say in their coerced curriculum tend to act out, tune out, or drop out. Education must change and unschooling is the fastest-growing alternative method of learning.

Two decades ago, students registered with their local school based on their house address. Now, with the internet, students are borderless. Learning can occur anywhere, anytime, anyway and from anyone--including self-taught.

Self-directing their education, unschoolers learn through:

  • Play
  • Projects
  • Reading
  • Volunteering
  • Video games
  • Sports
  • Mentorship
  • Travel
  • Life

This book explores the path of 30 unschooled children who self-directed all or part of their education and were accepted by universities, colleges, and other postsecondary schools. Most have already graduated.

What children need most are close relationships-parents, teachers, siblings, relatives, coaches, and mentors within a wider community, not just within an institutional school. Educational content is everywhere. Caring relationships are not.

Families that embrace unschooling, do not have to choose between a quality education and a relaxed, connected family lifestyle. They can have both.

Beautiful, comfortable sneakers
Size: 13 Little Kid, Color: Black/Rose Gold
Great sneakers. Easy for my six year old to get on and not too tight that she struggle. That tends to happen with other sneakers like this. Colors are bight and on point.

Love those sneakers but the longevity is questionable.
Size: 5.5 Big Kid, Color: Navy/Lavender
My daughter loves the look and no shoelace design, but maybe she is just a tad too active and these shoes usually last less than 1 year. Luckily unless you decide to hand its down to your next child, longevity is usually not my top concern as they will outgrow the size before it broke.
