If a person goes to a public place, is it okay for one of the people there to
follow her home against her will?

I don't want private e-mail about the discussions here unless it's friendly.
I don't want insulting, personal harangues sent to me privately. Honestly.

I'd like the person who is doing that to stop, please.

I would have written that privately, but I don't want a private exchange.

When I write about homeschooling, I want to do it in public so it can benefit
lots of people.

What started the whole nightmarish nonsense of the past two days on this list
was me answering someone's question honestly and lightly. I will continue
to do that.

Unfortunately, people will probably continue to overreact to little things,
take stuff personally that wasn't personal, and waste over a thousand
people's time with repetitive arguments which are NOT about unschooling, not
about natural learning, and not about what families can do to make their
lives with their children richer and more peaceful.

I invite anyone who wants to write about unschooling to keep on doing it,
those who are still ranting about the difference between them and other
Christians to STOP, it was never helpful and it was never necessary, and
let's get back to talking about unschooling.

Same here.
Not that I get much of the negative stuff, but sometimes it feels like
someone wants to start something.

And I don't want to have private emails telling me you don't let your kids do
this or that. It tells me the person hasn't read enough here to even
understand my beliefs enough to have a private conversation.

I'm happy to have private emails if someone wants to talk more
privately about how they might avoid spanking in their particular
situation. That seems like something that might be useful to some
people who might feel uncomfortable getting to the nitty-gritty on a
big huge list like this, so I just want to make it clear that I'd
understand that.
