So we are entering the home stretch. I thought I would use these last few days to share with you, my tips for Radically Unschooling your autistic/neurodivergent or even neurotypical child.

Step 1: Throw Out EVERYTHING You Think You Know About Parenting…and Education!

What a day!

It was our privilege today to have Pineapple and Cookie Monster Junior again. Of course it was hours and hours and hours of computer games all around. But Pineapple taught PanKwake…thx.

Children don’t always do what you tell them to…but they do do what they see you do. It is called modelling good behavior.

And yesterday, I had a REAL wake-up call. I went to the GP about pain my wrist but as part of that visit I HAD to weigh myself. I was NOT happy with the number. It scared me frankly…because I need to be here for PanKwake and Cookie Monster for many more years.

But what was even more shocking was PanKwake’s reaction this morning when I was on the treadmill…

WOW, Mom exercising? That’s a sight for sore eyes!

Life sciences has always been a huge part of PanKwake’s education. My original FrugalFam blog was about environmentally-friendly, money saving ideas. I started that when she was little more than a baby.
