I know another post so soon. My daughter was just reading over my shoulder and asked if
there are other groups like this for kids, so she could talk to other new unschoolers about
HER concerns? Any ideas, she has never been in a "chat room" and really doesn't use the
computer much, but if it was safe i would encourage it. Thanks again Melanie in VT

Hi Melanie,
My daughters are ALWAYS asking this sort of question. They are, soon to be 11
(April 2) and 12. I was always concerned about the safety issues also, but I
too would encourage if I knew it was safe. They would love to be able to
communicate with other UNschoolers. They tell me they don't miss school at all but
that they do wish there were more unschoolers around to talk to.

I have a new to unschooling 16-year-old that is interested in this as
well. My son,12 and unschooling for years, may be interested if he
could find boys his age to talk about gaming and such.

Tina,

I have a 15 year old and we are new as well. I am sure he would be interested to chat with your 16 yo.

Thanks,
Faith

Someone may have mentioned this already, but I'd recommend getting to an
unschooling conference if at all possible. The kids have such a wonderful time
and make great connections there.

I have a 12 year old son very into gaming and a 16 year old daughter (not
into gaming) but a big proponent of unschooling. They both love to IM
friends.

Have you considered going to the Live and Learn Conference in Albuquerque
this fall?
