[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I remember when I was on bed rest reading a bunch of the forums on mothering.com. They have a section on unschooling and its a terrible situation. There are many posts from mothers with tweens and teenagers having serious problems, doing nothing but video games, and kid's being angry that never had school and have no future. IMO, its a form of child neglect. [/quote] Not everyone who unschools their kid is an effective parent or an effective facilitator of learning (which does take effort), just as not everyone who sends their kid to school is an effective parent, and not every schoolteacher is an effective facilitator of learning. If you look, you will find angry, troubled kids in any setting. The point is which system favors which outcome for a particular family.[/quote]
