Spouses / Partners

I didn’t expect unschooling to make things so sweet between me and Keith.

Partly Keith's just a nice guy, but principles that applied to the kids applied to the adults, too, and we all experienced and shared more patience and understanding.

The more I got to know Marty, the more ways I saw him like Keith, and because I was sympathetic to those traits in Marty which had bothered me in Keith, I became more sympathetic to and understanding of Keith.

  1. This has been true of my relationship with my husband as well. The deeper we applied the principles of unschooling to our lives with our son, the more we saw each other in a clearer, brighter light. Thanks for sharing this!
