By helping our children explore their own autonomy we watch their interests and passions blossom and travel with them down many wondrous paths. As trusted advisor, confidant, and chauffeur, we have an incredible opportunity to help them discover who they are and observe this entire process unfold before us.
North Carolina has many unschooling families, traveling this road in their own way at their own pace. There are many wonderful people with years of collected wisdom out there. Connecting, supporting and helping unschoolers to develop lasting friendships and a sense of community is the purpose of this web site.
Unschooling may look a little different in every household but there is an underlying respect for the autonomy of the child. The knowledge that the individual child knows best what is right for him/herself. If this sounds like you and your family please join us and share the journey.
