Home- Educators 8 years, 2 months agoHi, I’m in Washington state, 24, no kids, but would like to learn the best ways to raise them if I ever have any, so I find this podcast to be a fresh & new perspective on that topic.
I probably won’t be on […]

Liberty Mentor posted an update in the group
Home- Educators 8 years, 3 months agoHello / Hola to you all! Looking at the various posts I’d say there is little going on and few, if any, have received any sort of reply to their posts and / or comments. Would that be a fair statement? (yes, I am actually looking to see who send a reply.) You can find me on Pinterest and on WordPress. Liberty Mentor is my nickname.

Yes, this is true. It would be awesome if this got more active!

Home- Educators 8 years, 4 months agoI live in the Houston area. My son is 6 and currently in a government school. I want to unschool, but several barriers stand in my way. Primarily the fact that my wife does not believe in anything that I do.

Let me be clear that what I mean is: we do not have the same beliefs.

Chris, I think it’s important, for the sake of your selves and your child, that you and your wife find some common ground. Perhaps you could use a technique from Bret’s debate contract, and each select a book or article pertaining to child rearing for the other to read, and then discuss them. Given your statements about your relationship, I…[Read more]
