I'm sure this has been beaten to death.



That was about socialization, but every possible topic comes back again and
again, and that's okay. Every day is the first day for some people, and it's
all new again for them. But a really cool thing is that the quality and
availability of information and ideas has gotten better over the years. When I
first started unschooling I had to wait two months for an issue of Growing
WIthout Schooling. It was three or four month-old writing, and it was never
NEARLY long enough. I'd read every single bit.

I wasn't the only one.

Then there were newsgroups and e-mail, and that helped.

And then there were message boards and chat rooms, and eventually websites.
I don't know what will be along for people to get information on
socialization in another three or five years, but it will be even better than now. And
still ten years from now there will be people just starting to think about
homeschooling and the horse will still be new and scary. <g>
