I love the idea of beautiful questions. It is truly inclusive when anyone of any age and ability can bring their own interpretation and respond with words or actions or sounds or other forms of expression in other media. 🌈🥳💝

This petition was written by a student who suffers from medically documented physical and mental health issues. The student also has documentation on their disabilities which are recognized by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Please read the petition and sign it, to help this Unschooled student change an outdated policy which is probably illegal based on the ADA. The student’s family is seeking legal help in this matter. Signing the petition is empowering the student’s personal and academic actions, and may help change the policy more quickly and affordably for the family.
Thank you!

Let’s get to 204 signatures by the end of today - can you add yours?

🌈🎉💝 I love this quote. Get curious about what is happening.

Fear and love are so close to one another that it can be difficult to tell the two apart. In these moments, step away, quieten the storm within, and ask yourself " where is this response/reaction coming from?"

Is it love? Is it fear? When it is fear-driven, it is about you. When it is love-driven, it is about your child. If it is love-driven, the next question is "what is the need behind the behaviour?"

Once you have identified the need, you are able to move forward in the spirit of connection and growth.
You asked, we listened! The audience loved Jennifer Kolari's half-day presentation from our April 2021 Children's Mental Health Symposium SO much, we have asked her to come back and join us for a full day presentation for our November 2021 Children's Mental Health Conference! Register today and join us for our online conference from the comfort of your own homes: https://instituteofchildpsychologyconference.com/

Thank you for the reminder!

Sometimes I think we all forget this.
You are not the dirty dishes in the sink or the kids' toys scattered on the floor.
Those may actually be proof of how great you are, right!?! You fed the kids and encouraged play, or more likely you crawled around on the floor with them.

Yes, You are enough!! I am enough, too!

No matter what gets done and how much is left undone, I am enough. It's going to bed at night thinking, Yes, I am imperfect and vulnerable and sometimes afraid, but that doesn't change the truth that I am also brave and worthy of love and belonging.

This rainbow just appeared in my yard!

It’s early evening and we let the boys have an after dinner dip in their pool with warm water. The weather was perfect. We had just them gotten dried off an into their pajamas when a sudden heavy thunder shower passed through, and then the rainbow!

Unschooling is like this, things are going along in a simple laidback manner and suddenly an idea occurs and there can be a highly energetic storm of activity, and then, occasionally right away, there is a magical moment of ah ha! Sometimes the ah ha comes after days or weeks.

Special Education Unschooled is all about helping you have more rainbow moments.
