When done well, parents who "unschool" essentially act as curators for their kids' education. "Lessons" can include grocery shopping trips to learn math, or going to a museum. The emphasis is on real-world skills, not adhering to a strict curriculum

No math. No social studies. Kids set the curriculum. Is this trend in education helping or harming kids?

I say this also deeply knowing that every parent has to make the best educational choice for their child, which includes beloved public, private, charter, Sudbury, free or microschools. (Also, I can't believe we are still trying to legitimize unschooling in 2024...but alas...)
