I have to say Bridgett- that my son is very happy being oblivious. (I mean that in a nice way!) He doesnt notice that he doesnt get things, and when I LET GO of the expectation that he would be different (and get everything when I THOUGHT he shcould ) we all did better!!!!!
I love unschooling - it has worked so far for us!
God bless

I understand what you mean. Give it lots of time though. AND my
biggest thing has always been the happiness test. If my son, or one
of my daughters is unhappy, I look at things more seriously. If they
are cruising along contentedly, I try to leave things be.

someday because he is not someone who can read something and
comprehend it or be able to write it in his own words. I think he may
have a slight learning disability. Some kind of problem integrating
what he is seeing and putting it into words. Now what he may or may
not have is irrelevant and that is why we are learning at home. I did
NOT want him labeled. Again that is why we brought him home after
being in PS for Kindergarten and First grade.
