116: Why it's Important to Allow Kids to Follow Their Passions and Interests

 

This week, I'm discussing the following questions:

• Does planning have any place in unschooling?
• Can we make attractive planners using Evernote?
• Will I continue my Evernote workshop series?
• How does balance fit into an unschooling life?
• Why is it very important that we let our kids follow their passions and interests?
• Is it okay to acknowledge our kids' talents?
• Can we praise our kids?
• Are we obliged to develop and use our own talents?
• Can reality, lifestyle and documentary TV series provide us with lots of wonderful learning experiences?
• How do we make homeschool record notes about TV shows we've watched?
