RE: Today is Day #365 on Steemit -- What an Awesome Year!

Thanks! I wish you lots of success here too.
Unschooling basically means that the children are not following a curriculum and their education is interest-based. We don't have a list of what they must accomplish each year. Living is Learning.
Here's one post that I did recently which discusses it:

Thanks, I read that post, it was very interesting. I still think home-schooled or free-school are better descriptions of your efforts and philosophy but I get that unschooled is a protest against questionable educational tactics of the government which apparently is aimed at dumbing down not learning. Maria Montessori method is based on observing the needs of the individual child in each moment. Her story is amazing and I have always liked her philosophy. Congrats and kudos to you and all parents who do not leave their child's raising to the state. Thanks for the explanation.
