Unschooling Mom2Mom

Hi Reader!Halfway through June - how's it going? I did a quick podcast for you last Friday and now it's a short video at YouTube. You can watch here: Watch on YouTube So many parents wrap up the school year not wanting to repeat THAT again - but not sure what to do next. That's why every June, I offer ½ price coaching calls. You need to talk to someone who will help you figure out what will work for you and your kids. If you've been here any time at all, you know I'm not a dogmatic type. I...

Just back from my EU/UK trip, and I came home thinking about something simple, Reader: How often we try to figure things out on our own. Travel has a way of making that really obvious. You’re in unfamiliar places, and instead of overthinking everything, you just ask. Where do I go or is this the right line?And people just… answer. No judgment. No big deal. Just help. It made me realize how often we don’t do that in everyday life. We assume we should already know, or we don’t want to bother...

Hi Reader! Each month, over in the Creating Confidence Daily App, we focus on a theme that parents are writing to me about. For June, one of the most common questions is about kids and their devices. Parents worry they're spending too much time on electronics, but they're wrestling with a bigger question: what is too much? How can we approach this with an unschooling mindset—one that prioritizes connection and relationship—without feeling like we're "losing them" to technology? If that sounds...

Hi Reader!Do you ever wonder if you have “enough” structure in your home with your kids?Do people tell you the solution to everything is “more structure?” It’s interesting how quickly structure can fall to the side when you travel. Right now, I’m in France, and we’ve been sleeping in. The original plan was to wander to markets in the morning, do a little sightseeing, and relax in the evenings. Except… different markets happen on different days in different nearby towns, and on the first day,...

Hey Reader, I’m heading to Europe tomorrow, and I’ve been thinking about two of the biggest pressure points for parents right now—structure and technology. I shared some thoughts on it in today’s podcast if you want to listen in or read along at the blog: 🎧 Listen/Read: The Life Prep Everyone Really Needs It's also at YouTube! Happy Unschooling!

Hey Reader!If you or someone you know is a gamer from way back, my 30-something son has a new project I want to show you. Go Watch! And yes, I'd love for you to show him some love (like/follow/share), but here are a few other reasons I'm bringing this to you: He's a grown unschooler who played a lot of videogames and watched a lot of TV. Took community college courses, transferred to a university, graduated Magna Cum Laude. Worked as a Radio DJ (among other things in college) - but you'll...
