I was wondering if any of you counted your children watching a movie
as a credit in your records?

Thanks

I credit breathing and staring at the ceiling in my records ;-) At
least for hours. I don't write it down in her list of accomplishments
for the year ;-)

It's *all* learning.

But why are you keeping records? In Missouri you don't even have to
notify that you're homeschooling.

In unschooling, everything counts.

Would you count reading a book? Seeing a play?

....and the difference IS...?

I read a response from Trisha, stating that she's keeping extra
records because of nosy family members...but I can't find the post now
to pull a quote from it.

So....what you're sayinig Trisha, is that their manipulative methods
are deciding how you document??? NO WAY!! If you're meeting the law,
then it shouldn't matter if they turn you in anyway!! Keep whatever
you need to prove you're homeschooling legally and ignore your family.
Holy cow.

I can't imagine letting someone manipulate me and live in fear like
that. I hope you get some distance from these people until you feel
confident enough to defend your choices without fear.
