All true.  I have to step back and remember not to be defensive that there is no reason for it.  sometimes I am just "to emotional" or something.  I agree that this whole community has had great advice!!

Thank you very much. I am happy to know that my journey has helped another

full and connect more fully with her child/ren. As flattering as that is, I

do believe that everyone on here is offering encouragement in the form of

helpful advice. Each person needs are different and what you or I may think

is harsh another harsh another person may find to be exactly what they need.

I personally love a direct kick in the butt style. I have been practicing

kindness more since Meredith wrote that amazing post a few weeks ago and I

hope that is reflected more in my writing style.



I love this list for what it is, a huge community of folks helping one

another their own way. Each of us comes with our own different way.Whatever

helps people grow on the unschooling journey is wonderful :-)

Just remember that if you read something that offends you first try to

figure out why. Dig deep. Challenge yourself. And if you don't need it or it

doesn't resonate let it go and accept that it likely helped someone else.
