Parenting & Unschooling

On the two questions I get asked more than any others

On watching a child learn what he actually wants to know

On the life that was expected, the one we built instead, and what it actually required.

On what happens when nobody tells a child a thing is hard

On owning less, the particular freedom of a child who knows where home actually is, and the question that quietly stopped one day.

On what a rule can teach you and what only a choice can. On doing something well or doing something true to you

On leaving the mainstream path with your kids, and the loneliness nobody warns you about.

On what the system actually produces, and why I became more afraid of it than of the unknown.

On unschooling, wrong turns, and why the clearest decisions start with knowing what to refuse.

On pure beings, muddy knees, and what we forgot.

On what early life writes into the body, and how long it stays there.
