SUPPORT THE PODCAST ON PATREON: liveplaylearn

Rachel Evans, unschooling parent and advocate from Connect and Respect, joins Heidi Steel this episode, to talk about Deschooling.

We discuss:

· The importance of deschooling, what it is and why we do it.

· The practicalities of deschooling.

· What deschooling looks like for parents, questioning schooled thinking, deconstructing our ideas of learning, and educating ourselves.

· Rebuilding our parent:child relationships, connection and trust through quality time and fun together.

· What deschooling looks like for our children: experimenting with their new freedom, binging on previously restricted activities, responding to restlessness, boredom, lack of motivation, and disengagement.

· How we can trust the process, support our children as they find their own paths, and support our children’s individual journeys.

· The legacy of school based trauma, its ongoing effect on our children’s lives and how it impacts deschooling.

· The rewards of deschooling and healing from school based trauma.
