The joy level in my family keeps rising as unschooling permeates more and
more of our life. How do you share this with others especially at work (I'm a
part time teacher) and with my Waldorf friends without alienating them.

Then you can word it just the way you want to, and you're not there
when they read it.

--- I always just share with others the fun things I see my kids do
and I do not necessarily tell people that my kids are unschooling (I
don't always want to deal with the blank looks!). I just talk about
the things the kids have done/are doing, the fun they are having or
the grains of real education they have gleaned and learned on their
own and I do not worry about alienating others.

If you are teaching in a Waldorf school then these others should know
that they are "different" from the norm, too. I think we need to be
ourselves in discussing what happens in our homes and unapologetic
about what we do. If we believe in what we are doing, then who's
business is it as to how we get there? I am not trying to be rude-I am
just stating things how I see them.
