RE: The Unknown History of American Education

Excellent write. Highly Resteemed.

The only issue in the US is if you dont show some form of schooling they will take your child. That seems logically benevolent.

Ill have to find this school in England and the Man who started it for you. He started a boarding school which was basically unschooling. All the children and staff had a voting system on everything but the schools finances.

Thanks for sharing.

Hey buddy, thank you for the compliment and the Resteem. Are you sure you need to show some form of schooling? I know Dayna Martin and others unschool and make it a point NOT to school their kid. Maybe they've found a way around that.

Isn't that ridiculous BTW? That other strangers can take away your kid if you're not raising them according to how they want? In Gatto's book he talked about how that idea came from the Puritan idea that children were "on loan" from God. I hope more people can really think deeply about that and understand just how crazy the ramifications are there.

Thank you for the Wiki posts, I will look more into that!

You can censor me on wechat and pretend that I don't exist but not on here kiddo. When you run your own unschool ( as I am doing ) or ANY alternative school of your own then you'll have the worth-a-damn factor enough to at least say you did something instead of just sit around all day writing and talking about it. Isn't that what traditional school teachers do? Talk all day about theory but have next to zero actual experience in the real world? You can get people here to believe you know what you're talking about because we had enough long and deep debates about it during your training at my unschool but I've known you for years face to face and I know you're too much of a coward to look me in the eye and tell me you have the balls to open your own school, much less to teach. Hell if you have the balls to teach then I'll let you out of your NDA / Non-compete! You talk a mad game on the internet son but show us what you can do with teaching real kids! Stop repeating stuff you heard from other people and write ONE honest sentence!

Your unschool has teachers?
