are our children. They do it perfectly.

I love this. I wish I'd taken it to heart early in our unschooling, not to disregard all the great advice I received from other unschooling parents but to help quiet the doubts that came up.

Oh that is just beautiful!!! Committing it to memory right now so that I can remind myself along our path.
That's awesome.. I remember Mary saying to me after I asked a question about Alec, when I had just found unschooling..."what does he think?" boy did our world change, and it was a wonderful change :)
exactly!
it's so true! sometimes they make decisions like school, and as hard as it is for us (as we both know), being the best parent is supporting them through it. i've been judged by school and unschooly folks and if they had remembered this, they may have taken a pause before they spoke.
