My enthusiasm for this list is big! One of the new members wrote that she was reading every post and wondered if others could possibly be doing the same. I have to say that for a month now I have read almost every single post, though often skipping a few days if I have to! I don't think i could be implementing the changes I am making towards truly respectful, natural, unschooling mentality if I didn't have this community's example, debate, support. The discussions about Wishcraft r.e. thinking about your own wishes as a child reminded me of how much I loved listening to good adult converstaion or being part of it myself. I remember sitting among the adults in our living room one day when they were debating something in the paper (can't remember what - could have been about Patty Hearst or Nixon or even just the price of stamps!) and thinking to myself that good conversation could feel so filling -I was about 10 I think. I get that feeling here. I have a lot of friends -in my area and all over the world - but none of them are on this same Unschooling journey (yet) so I can't really share it with them or get as much from their parenting conversation.

Are there any people from Atlanta (I am an hour east) on this list? We go to a hschooling playgroup already but i am looking for unschoolers who may want to visit our orgainc farm or meet in Atlanta once in a while. My boys are almost 6 and just 3.

I am really grateful for this list.
