Darn, now that it's been sent a couple of other places, I find an error.

Should've been "other people buy their homeschooling." (not unschooling)

[And bonus point to anyone who understood this the first time through. It
makes perfect sense in my voice and in my head, but all strung out in its little
words this way would make it a heck of a sentence to diagram:

thinking it yet. -=- Not a very good sentence. Sorry.]

A small flaw in a huge diamond. That was a great post. Damn, you have
such a way with analogies!

It made sense to me, though I have to admit that I just couldn't
follow your other one:

angry

The overall post definitely goes in my "words to ponder" file. The
analogy really spoke to me. My part-time job is teaching people how
to do something that is largely intuitive and comes by feel
(swimming) and it's always fun when they "get it" and *know* that
they've got it, but it's really hard to explain to them exactly how
to get it. I love thinking about unschooling in the same way.
