[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The author Tara Westover of the autobiography "Educated" was unschooled and eventually went to college and got a Phd. It's a fascinating book but also shows the problems of unschooling for the ideal student, a very smart, very motivated child. For a less motivated child, unschooling would be much worse. [/quote] That worked for her and an older brother who hated their family and were self motivated to study on their own for the appearance of normalcy. The other three kids live on their parents land, still UNEDUCATED. Luckily for them their mom's oil business took off before it was a huge thing in the US. Otherwise the three uneducated adult kids and their families would all be on food stamps, etc. Tara is an outlier. [/quote]
