Hi there. I have been wanting to post, I have ideas, just not the best computer situation right now & it can be a huge pain in the ass to try & get posts posted with the computer I am using right now. I promise, promise, promise I will be back to blogging soon. I appreciate your words (they mean so much to me) & it makes me feel AWEsome to know that I can be inspirational for other parents on their own paths. Stacey! Hi there.

I have been reading a lot about unschooling and homeschooling and things like that (mostly from your blogroll) and wished I could hear your thoughts again! Plus a childhood friend has been posting on facebook about her quest to get her 3-month-old to sleep in the crib so she can go back in the room with her husband...and how she felt so guilty for letting him sleep in the sling while she cooked dinner because he wouldn't sleep by himself in the crib all day... things like that just hurt my heart. I never let my kids CIO to make them sleep, and I know you would have appreciated the thought behind letting kids sleep when they're tired, and wake up when they're awake. So I'm looking forward to your next post! Enjoy the snow! I miss your posts!

It took me a while to figure out what folks even meant by unschooling only academics. That seemed contrary to the whole unschooling thing. The radical unschooling label seems unnecessary, if we really embrace the unschooling philosophy, which isn't about education, right? It's about life [without school].
