Great contest!

I recently stumbled onto this boy's story, Don't Tell Me I Can't.

I wrote this post about it soon after reading the book and my perspective on schooling and unschooling has changed some more since that post. I have a daughter who has recently been struggling with school. Her teacher routinely sends home feedback with the school work that she didn't finish in class with brief comments about how she doesn't stay focused during her assignments. I've also been told by my wife that she is made to sit and work on her assignments while the other children have recess and/or snack time. My wife is sick of it and finally decided that we should take her out of school for homeschooling. I still hold negative biases towards homeschooling and homeschooled kids, but I also have negative views on the way that most formal education is conducted. The big idea behind unschooling is to let kids decide what they want to learn about and I know that there's power in letting people choose their own destiny.
This book is full of great quotes "Sometimes bad luck is really consequences of bad choices"
I don't know how homeschooling will go for my daughter, but I think there may be great things that come out of it. I guess time will tell.
Kudos to you for engaging with your audience. I love to see lots of comments on people's posts.
