You may be unschooling if...
1. you and your children are still in their pajamas and it's afternoon, and
you're all ready for bed that night.
2. the word "school" by itself doesn't exist in your vocabulary.
3. you never consider yourself a "teacher" but only as a loving parent.
--Many homeschoolers think of themselves as teachers and as parents.
Children don't need teachers, but they need someone who loves them and guides
them in their learning. Teachers don't make children learn. Children just
learn.
4. when someone asks you "what curriculum do you use?", you answer "the
world's curriculum".
