Today we answer some common doubts that maybe affecting a family’s belief in starting to Homeschool, a fear of their child integrating into society?
I heard this myself just last week as I continue to show my girls as much of the world as possible, I simply watch in awe at their innate curiosity to continue to ask endless questions of intrigue, to see how things work in reality and gain true understanding. Something so lacking in any traditional school setting.
This can be seen in the magic of numbers found everywhere, how music affects our vibrations and the world around us, the sacredness of ..read more

While working with John, Pat was able to appreciate the stark contrast of giving children respect and autonomy to understand the world around as opposed to cramming and regurgitating soon to be forgotten facts for constant tests, or as John Holt named it, “The Charade of Leaning”
This is a real gem of a clip from the podcast as Pat was originally a skeptic of John’s ideas of education until he saw the beautiful simplicity of it working i ..read more
