[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I was a kid homeschooling using a regular curriculum, we made fun of unschoolers. The ones everyone knew seemed to be incapable of getting it together enough to actually homeschool so they called doing next to nothing unschooling.[/quote] A few years ago my aunt and I were discussing "unschooling" (she homeschooled my cousins K-12 using a traditional curriculum and homeschooling groups). She said in her experience (they didn't use the term back then), that is what ended up happening if the homeschooling parent wasn't able to keep up with a schedule, they just decided their kids would learn from "life experiences". I'm sure that unschooling is great for some kids, especially if a family has the resources to do lots of enrichment and hire tutors if needed. SOUNDS amazing if you are a curious, self-motivated kid. DCUM isn't really a great forum for nontraditional schooling options. Not a lot of nontraditional folks here.[/quote]
