Great read! I’ve also had an interest in the topic “what it means to be educated” and have asked myself that every day since we started homeschooling our kids 5 years ago . Other than 1/2 year in first grade for one, my kids have never gone to “school.”
Initially we had a semblance of a curriculum for the first 3 1/2 years but it has now transitioned to almost all unschooling in the last 1 1/2 years. This was due to different factors - Covid affecting schedule and workflow , as well as kid preferences and adult preferences.
I don’t know if unschooling will be successful but it was nice to see Rachel’s perspective!
