Unschooling (not RUing)

-=-The RU group we are begining to form has young children. -=-
Please PLEASE, for the good of every member of that group and of unschooling itself, call it an unschooling group.

I don't always get my way, but I have attempted to keep jargon out of unschooling discussions I'm in. When a new term is proposed, I rush to be the first to say "Use plain English, please." Some people are using "RU" and pronouncing it "ARE YOU" or "RUE" and some people are "Ruing," and I don't like it. It's a bad idea.
