We are extremely excited! We have recently decided to visit the USA in October.
We would love to be there for the Live and Learn Unschooling Conference but we have to attend my cousins wedding in Australia in late September so could not swing it this year (maybe next time?).

I came up with this while having a virtual chat with some aus unschoolers about relationships.

Years ago when i had a day job and only one child, I used to catch a melbourne tram up lygon street to work. The sardine feel was horrible, as was saying good bye to my lover and our new baby for the best part of the day.

I keep meeting and hearing of Mums who want to unschool & practice non coercive parenting but are having problems bringing their hubbys along for the ride. Originally I had planned to write a series of “letter to Dads”, in trying to communicate the great potential and benefits of these approaches.
