Hello,
About a week or so ago, mention was made of a discussion or article or
archive on unschooling.com regarding how to really be with your child.I
could really use this right now! If anyone can help me I would really
appreciate it.
I am so enjoying the discussions on this list, and feel so fired up and can
not stop checking the computer to see if there is more to read. I suspect
this is similar to how my son feels when he just HAS to play a computer game
over and over or do a puzzle over and over or he has an insatiable appetite
for one particular subject.(Not school subject!)
My brain hurts but I must have more information!! I am now reading John
Holt's How Children Fail, and my friend is going to lend me a whole box of
Growing Without Schooling issues from long ago.
Thank you all for your inspiration. Now I must get some sleep!

It was on the unschooling.com message board someone else probably has the
exact URL for it. It was a great discussion.

Hi Nancy,
Where are you in BC? I'm near Victoria.

Hello Tia, I am in Prince George. There are very few of us up here doing this
unschooling way, and it is a relief to find a group of people on the internet
tolisten to and learn from.
My dad is in Saanichton and my brother lives on Shawnigan Lake, so we get to
Victoria now and then. Are there other unschoolers in your area?
Bye the way, I am jealous of your flower count, we have snow falling and
about -6C right now, to get colder this week.

Do you know Tina Pearson? She has a daughter, Kallysa (sp?) If you don't
know her, I can ask her if I can pass her addy on to you or vice versa.
She's pretty much an unschooler, though due to Tina being a single parent,
Kallysa has been in and out of school a bit.

Lots.

I'll keep my mouth shut. The last time I bragged about our weather online,
we had the blizzard of 96 to cope with. It would have been nothing to you
northerners, but it was major for us.
