Exactly! It's so odd how schools don't implement their own educational research!
We’re homeschooling now. We’re in our 3rd/4th year now. I have two boys, ages 11 & 10. We’ve tried so many different options in the last 3 years and it felt like I was trying to fit a square into a triangle. So now we’re diving into unschooling and letting go of formal curriculum (mostly). We’re only two days in but it’s felt so freeing and my kids and I have had so many beautiful moments that used to get squashed away by my to do lists, stress, and yelling. It is a breath of fresh air ❤
I’m so glad to hear that! Keep prioritizing connection and communication - you’ll discover learning happening all over the place! Might want to go back and deschool a little more too - I have a deschooling playlist here! Congrats for being brave enough to try this! ❤
I have homeschooled since the beginning (oldest is 13). We have always been more on the relaxed side of homeschooling. I've seen such fruit from that mindset so now I am considering relaxing even more for the high school years!
It works! All the worries you have about it are not valid anymore. Kids get into college, have careers, move into adulthood without duplicating that all-too-familiar school way of doing the "high school" years. Yay for you - and for your kids!!!
a. and c. my oldest 'technically" is not school age yet but that doesn't stop us from learning and growing! and I definitely need inspiration and have questions about unschooling so I am entering this journey with new eyes and and open mind. Thank you for sharing from your big pile of information! We love and appreciate it! Looking forward to more questions of the month. 🧡💛💚💙💜❤
I love that you're here looking around! ❤️

Unschooling already as we’ve tried every curriculum invented or it seems that way anyway, I do struggle with my own nagging thoughts as I don’t know many unschooling families but I know I could not go back because I know it doesn’t work for us
Some of us have to try everyting out first to see that it was really just the marketing. The curriculum itself? meh. And the relevance for our learners... often non-existent!
I'd love to get you more support within my membership group. Lots of parents in there have had this same path toward unschooling. Surrounding yourself - even if that means only a couple of Zoom calls a week or a WhatsApp channel for connection - can really give you the strength you need when those nagging thoughts start to do their thing. And I'm in there all the time, so I'll help you too! The link is in the video description, if you need it. www.unschoolingmom2mom.com/youtube (not sure if this will hyperlink for you, but we'll see!)
the nagging thoughts are always popping into my head! I keep reminding myself that "regular" schooling doesn't work for us and we dislike having to conform to all of the "school" rules. We live by the "life" rules. When you think the children aren't learning, they say something and you are like, WOW!
@@epikparkyt4475 so true! We just have to notice, right?
B. Kids are still in school!
Reach out if you have questions! I'm here!
Homeschooling now my 7 year old . I’m not sure what style of homeschooling will work for us. I love the idea of unschooling. Definitely needing some guidance! Very new to the homeschool world.
It's an interesting path... Unschooling seems so very weird at first. And then, the more you do it ,the more LOGICAL it seems. It's our natural way of learning - even how adults choose to learn in the real world. School learning and that approach, is best if you stay in a school setting and memorize easily. But, real life isn't like that at all. Welcome to all of it!
I don’t think it’s weird. I really like it! You’re totally right , that IS the way adults learn. I do believe that if they are interested in the subject they will restrain the information . The more challenging thing for me is trusting the flow. But like you said there is no right or wrong way we all have to figure out what works for us. It is a beautiful journey. I’m so grateful I get to have with my kids. Thank you for all this great information.
I do believe “ Life is learning” so true
I have been homeschooling from the beginning. My oldest is 12, and I want to switch to unschooling. It’s a bit overwhelming and idk where to start! I have a 12, 8, 6, and 4 yr old.
It can be - but once you do, you'll wonder why you hesitated! I have another video that might help you: czcams.com/video/53a6pa000bM/video.html
Thank you
You're welcome!
Hello sue! Thank you so much for making these videos. I'm brand new with my 15 year old daughter. School just wasn't working for her for years. I'm just so overwhelmed right now and don't want to fail her 😢
You got this! I have a lot of resources that can point the way. Tell me what kinds of questions you have and I’ll send you links!!!
A.
I love our summers because that is the season when we are more like unschoolers. I’m excited to hear how you approached unschooling. Just subscribed. We are also military. And I also have a channel that has tons of homeschooling focus. I would love to be friends and connect here 😊 looking forward to watching more of your content!
Yes! We can be CZcams buddies! I just subscribed to your channel! I think a lot of people may dip their toes in the water, so to speak, during the summer when the regular school pressures are gone! Nice to meet you!
@@UnschoolingMom2Mom that’s one of the things that I love about summer. Thank you so much also. Fun to have a new buddy!
Homeschool first time 3rd grader. I quit my nursing career of 20 yrs to be with her ❤
I have a nursing degree that I set aside when we started homeschooling! You'll be so glad you did! Reach out if you need help!
