One is that my kids didn't do well for unschoolers. They're doing well for anyone. They're doing well as people. I think 'Pretty good, for an unschooler' is kind of an insulting thought.
And the other is about "screen time"—a term I've heard too many times in the past week. I posted this on Always Learning:
"I wasn't pro-TV..."
I'm not pro-TV, I'm anti-anti.
I didn't make that response verbally, but the next time someone talks about not being pro-something, I hope I'll remember it.
The negativity added to the equation of a mom (especially) declaring that she is not for, or against, (something) is always (I think) negativity.
And here are some gratuitous photos, all from Philadelphia on the 16th.
