real world
Sandy Stephan
I need suggestions for my 11 year old son to get out into the real world with responsibilities. He's ready for a change We are 20 min. from Berkeley in El Sobrante. Any suggestions I can present to him?
Thanks in advance,
Sandy

What is it he likes to or wants to do? My dd started volunteering
young. She has volunteered at a bookstore, soup kitchen, free store
and animal rescue. She had tried to start her own pet walking service,
still trying.
Those are just a few ideas to help you get started.

I'm not sure I understand the question.
What exactly are you looking for?
Is he in school? What responsibilities does he want?

Is he simply bored and looking for new directions? I'm always a little leery when a parent new to an unschooling list says either "real world" or "responsibilities" - its often about the parent's agenda moreso than the kid's. Radical unschooling happens in the real world, already. There are real problems to solve daily - even problems like "what am I going to do today?" (that's time management).
