Hi Dirk,

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. I’ve just started learning about the Sudbury schools recently, but from the little I know, it seems like you are spot on. It’s amazing what a sense of freedom will do for us.

Thanks for tuning in,
Dude

Hi Michele,

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Homeschool is definitely an option we are strongly considering, and I love the idea of unschooling. It’s just a matter of figuring out how to make that commitment work.

I’ll take a look at your writing and videos…thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Any idea how challenging it is to start a Sudbury school?

Thanks for tuning in,
Dude

Well, one thing that convinced me is to experience the graduates of a Sudbury school. You can see the trailer for a documentary about Fairhaven on our website. When I met them in person, I was wildly impressed by their maturity and fearlessness. The truly do not have a fear of failure. I myself do not know what that’s like. We have been raised in boxes, so we don’t know what freedom feels like. I would be a different person if I had gone to a Sudbury school. Good luck and best wishes.

Thanks for the hat tip!

If there isn’t a Sudbury school near you, consider homeschooling. That’s what my family has been doing from the start. Here is a collection of my writing and the writing/videos of others on the topic of freedom in learning. http://michelepixels.com/unschooling/
