Re: [unschoolingbasics] Digest Number 56

Hello,
I'm a Mom to eight children and only my oldest went to school for k- half of
1st, the rest have always been "schooled at home" with many controls. I'm
looking for some unschoolingbasics and wondering what you all thought about how
it would be done with a large family. Our oldest just turned 16 g, 14b, 12b,
10b, 8g, 6g, 4, and 9mos. b. How would a mom deal with 8 children in many
different rooms doing many different things without control???? Right now the
boys just want to play nintendo and xbox all day long. 16g on the phone
constantly and 4, 6, 8 yo's wanting to be in the pool all day. I do need to get some
things done other wise chaos. I just want to understand if it is possible
with large families.
