    Unschooling Nebraska (UnschoolingNE) - This list is a place for Nebraska unschoolers to get together and discuss unschooling ideas. Unschooling is about not creating a miniature school inside your home. You are free to learn and live as a family. As a family, you are free to choose how that looks in your individual home. You are *Mom*, not the *teacher*. Dad is not the *principal*, he is the dad. Unschooling is living life, not dividing *life* up into compartments such as math, science, social studies, etc.

    Unschooling is *not* a hands-off type of parenting or living. If you are coming to this from conventional parenting it can be a leap of faith. Faith that your child *will* learn without being forced, and at his own individual pace. Unschooling can question some traditional thoughts that usually don't get questioned in other circles. Such as learning without a curriculum, treating children with kindness, respect and dignity, modeling our interactions with them the way we'd like them to interact with others. Trusting your child's natural ability to learn can have wonderful benefits. It is a enjoyable journey and if you think this sounds appealing to you, join us.

    To Subscribe, visit UnschoolingNE.
