Yeah, and any minute I'll be getting the "unschoolier than thou -
unschooling dogmatist!!" note on the side ( or in public!) from you know
who. <G>

Sticking my nose in again. But what have I missed in the months I was off
list(s)? I know that unschoolingdiscussion changed names like two times and
owners too. (Thank goodness this one stayed the same!) And I was confused for a
time, but what is this about other lists? Why are there other lists? Rather, for
what reasons did other lists need/want/havetobe formed? Anyone care to catch
me up, or is it just too much to get into? And how exactly can a person be an
unschooling dogmatist? This isn't a religion, or do I really not know what the
word means?

~Nancy~Full of questions today! <g>

Helen said the plan all along for Unschooling.com was to have multiple
lists. There was sort of an expectation that the
Unschooling-dotcom/Unschooling-Discussion list should be everything to every
unschooler when it couldn't be.

There was probably a blow up that prompted the effort to create more lists
but that's pretty much the whole boring story.

People bitched about me?

That's part of it.

-=-And how exactly can a person be an
unschooling dogmatist? This isn't a religion, or do I really not know what
the
word means?-=-

When a more radical unschooler tells someone who doesn't want to really
unschool that something or other isn't going to produce unschooling results, then
the less radical unschooler might upon occasion say to the more radical
unschooler something like
You think you own unschooling
or
Not everyone has to unschool the way you do
or
There are as many ways to unschool as there are unschoolers
or
Who died and made you god?

or something suggesting that the person who honestly only really wanted to
help them be courageous and free is somehow trying to limit their unschooling to
just radical, actual, workable unschooling.
