Principles - a list for unschooling by Claire Horsley on the
Always Learning unschooling discussion board...
" ... - my relationship with my child comes first (any act of mine should promote a loving and respectful relationship with my child)
- arbitrary limits and controls do not promote such a relationship and should not be used
- strewing things, activities and opportunities is vital to creating a rich and vibrant learning environment
- I am my child's partner in negotiating the world; my child learns from my example
- I am energised by making conscious choices; feeling that I 'have to' do something drains my energy
- each child is a precious, unique person; it is a parent's joy to be able to nuture and encourage their child's individual personality..."
