Today’s guest, Dr. Kate Green, has five very successful, alternatively educated young adult and teen children of her own. She also loves working as an educational consultant, to help other families make decisions that enable their children to joyfully excel. Kate, Gina, and I talked about what it is like to raise FIVE unschooled - or maybe worldschooled - kids, how each found their own unique path, balancing work and parenting, and more. So stay tuned for a great episode.



2:29 - The journey from schooling to unschooling: “I had to wear the teacher hat and then go back to the parent hat. And that wasn’t an authentic way of living.”
10:45 - Unschooling while working: “You just learn to have snacks readily available.”
13:12 - What are the “kids” up to?: “They’re able to follow their passions and… swap mid-plan.”
19:06 - Gaming, Screens, and Unschooling: “I think this is 21st Century social emotional learning skills that you have to build in virtual worlds.”
24:30 - Does Kate’s academic work (in Education) intersect with unschooling?: “I take great pride in walking outside of that traditional arena.”
29:44 - Unschooling and the family relationship: “It doesn’t matter if you hit a benchmark in math or literature. What matters is the relationship you have with people.”
