E25 - LEARN NOTHING DAY A dialogue with SANDRA DODD on Unschooling and the Complexities of Parenting
This is an episode to celebrate Learn Nothing Day. Sandra Dodd's birthday is on July 24th, and as a joke, she started 'Learn Nothing Day,' - which now is an international holiday for unschoolers. A day where we each year try to learn nothing and fail.
As Sandra Says: "Unschoolers need a holiday. When people ask if they homeschool in the summer, they say yes. When people ask when they have a break from learning, they say never. This has gone on for a long time now. July 24 is Learn Nothing Day—a vacation for unschoolers."
We loved our first episode with Sandra Dodd so much that we promised each other to continue our talk in another episode. So here we are. This episode, besides talking about Learn Nothing Day, tackles the topic of unschooling and parental judgment. Sandra shares her experiences and insights, offering valuable advice on how to guide and coach your kids without imposing your own biases. We discuss the importance of teaching children crucial life skills and fostering an environment that promotes natural learning.
Our chat with Sandra Dodd is more than just an exchange of ideas; it's a journey through personal experiences, shared struggles, and triumphant breakthroughs. Whether you're a parent, a homeschooler, or simply curious about the art of communication, unschooling, and parenting, this episode is a must-listen.
It's an invitation to reflect, question, and perhaps see things from a different perspective – one that could better serve you and your family. So, come, join our conversation, and let's explore together. And see if you can take just one day of learning nothing :)
