EU309: Deschooling with Christina Kauffman

Christina Kauffman is an unschooling mom of three young kids, and she joins me this week to talk about her deschooling journey. We explore both what she’s found challenging and what she’s found surprising so far. She also shares her experience with navigating sibling dynamics.

We have a lovely conversation!

Questions for Christina

Can you share with us a bit about you and your family? What is everybody interested in right now?

How did you discover unschooling and what did your family’s move to unschooling look like?

What has been one of the more challenging aspects of deschooling for you? Can you share a bit about your journey through it?

What has surprised you most about your journey so far?

One of the benefits of choosing unschooling is how much time the family spends together. Yet, sibling dynamics can sometimes be challenging to navigate. I’d love to hear about your experience with that.

What is your favourite thing about the flow of your unschooling days right now?

The Living Joyfully Network community

The Network is a wonderful online community for parents to engage in candid conversations about living and learning through the lens of unschooling. Our shared goals are to embrace lifelong learning, develop strong and connected relationships with our children, and cultivate a thriving unschooling lifestyle in our families.

This month, our theme is The Joys of Unschooling and we’re exploring it through the lenses of presence and kindness.
