Comment on Unschooling with atypical kids: would you care to explain? by Phoebe

I recently took my classically autistic son to the dentist, a particular one who had been recommended to us because they did well by other autistic kids. They had visual supports available, they kept us away from the hustle and bustle, and they were low-key and used words wisely. All in all, they were GREAT with my boy. The nurse who helped us mentioned that they use or offer the visual aids and try to keep the same staff with the same kids each time because it helps ALL their clients, not just the, ah, “atypical” ones.

Comment on Bare Feet and Learning Connections by Mike Grenville

Yes it’s the sense of connection that walking barefoot gives but more than that for me it’s as though I feel energy coming in through my feet when I walk barefoot.

Regarding school, I highly recommend watching this eye opening film: Schooling the World

Comment on Unschooling after Death by mamapoekie

This is something I think about often. I wouldn’t want my daughter to be raised by anyone in our families, or even in our immediate environment. Heck… I only know one family who is a little bit peaceful and then they’re not even unschoolers and still have a lot of things I don’t agree with.
The only people I would see my daughter grow up with if we were to die are people I only know online… It scares me shitless, because we travel a lot and because we do live in countries where danger is a real thing… and we are sometimes on the road without our child.

Yet it is true that if anyone would ask of me to be their kids guardian, I would say yes. I think that a lot of us are rather openminded about that
My husband keeps putting it off to make a will, because he doesn’t want to realize this is a possibility.
