This Tuesday, Terry and I will chat with an advocate of unschooling. What a concept-no formal school, no classes, no peer pressure, no rules except for what the parents instill. I would love to chat with a teenager that has been "unschooled" to get a better idea of how well it works. I have a lot of questions, of course, and I'm looking forward to chatting with Dayna about them. What about getting into college? What about learning history and writing essays? What can parents do to give their children some of the benefits of unschooling when they must be in school? Please do send in your questions for Dayna. This is going to be a good show.

Can you imagaine what your life would have been like, for better or worse, if your education came from living in the "real world" along side your parents or guardians? I'd love to know what you think about this. Answer in the poll.
