It is amazing how much one learns from osmosis and observation. This can be a wonderful benefit and skill as well as a burden and downfall. This is all the more reason as a family to allow free choice and support of what is important to the individual. Being part of an environment that is abundant and connected.
When I was little my mom didn't make or make me feel like I should or needed to ever say thank you. Nor call her mam or other such things. I was however naturally thankful and we could share that. I was naturally respectful and it was not because of a discussion on respect.
When I would go to other kids houses the parents would tell my mom oh your son is so polite and helpful. I always new that saying thank you and please and nice things made other parents feel respected and appreciated. So I would. Just because in my house my mom didn't need me to do those things for us to feel them didn't mean I didn't understand and be able to apply the techniques out side of our house. That is real learning and understanding. When its something that can be used and understood in any situation. Not based on a formula or a specific factor but an awareness or ability.
This is the beauty of observing and learning based on an inner process vs one of an outside influence dictating the learning process.
Either whats important to me is naturally my gift or I am able to learn so I easily learn about what is interesting and apply that skill and understanding into a lucrative event. Either way its good and that is why I am such a big fan of freedom and support of what is interesting.
Do what you Love, Love what you DO.

learning
Greetings All.
I have been unschooled since I was born. It is quite normal and obvious to pay attention to what is important and focus on what I enjoy.
In the last year I have integrated many skills and abilities without any school, teacher or system. Plus it was all done because I WANTED to so it was just me playing and becoming more and more capable every day I played.
One of my recent integrations is beekeeping. 2 months ago I decided I wanted to keep bees ( I am nurturing a fully sustainable property) 2 weeks ago I got my first bee hives and am now a beekeeper. As I have been keeping bees I observed a most wonderful display of life so we may all upgrade because of it. Beekeeping is like parenting. Provide what they need (bee hive, food supply freedom) they do the rest. The bees know how to get food they know how to sleep, they know how to protect them self's from ants (they have guards who blow them away from the entry way with the wind power of beating wings). They know how to keep cool in the summer (beat their wings over water supply, thus creating an effect like a swamp cooler where the movement of the air passes over the water creating a chilling effect) they are quite capable and really the only thing I needed to learn about bees is when to harvest there honey, when to provide them more space, when to protect them from elements and stuff that mostly applied to my desire from having them. I have much appreciation for every beings ability to figure out whats important.
When children are born they are pure potential. Capable of anything and alive with the experience of life. There are many things that may not be of importance to a free being ( in a bees case that would include watching movies, playing video games, or baseball, in a child's case that may be gathering nectar, mating to die, studying math, science and history. The interesting thing about a human child versus a bee is that a child may be interested in something at one point and become interested in something else later.
With freedom to choose and responsibility for ones actions one develops the ability to do whats important and to know how to link that with sustaining ones life needs. One can make money writing, drawing, managing, inventing, running, climbing, swimming, lifting, computing, weighing or at anything that is worth doing. One can provide all ones needs form ones own property or buy everything one ever uses with money from a check.
I learn so much from books, from the internet and from other skilled people, I learn this stuff on a daily basis and I am learning it because I am interested in it so not only am I learning, focusing and evolving I am doing it in a free unique way based on my preferences.
SO I get the best of both worlds. I know how to learn and I learn whats important and utilize those skills and understandings into a service that provides use.
I often meet people that at some point in school decided learning sucked because it was always associated with force, manipulation, boring, useless, and other non desirable realities. When one experiences learning as this is just more of something I love one is not only a very effective integrator of information but also enjoys the process.
When I feel good everything is right and when I feel bad everything is wrong. So I would rather feel good meaning have everything be right than do stuff that didn't feel good therefore really doing everything wrong.
Being fulfilled engaged and free is all I need. Everything else is a bonus.
Life tends to get easy when I simplify. Life tends to get more abundant when I let go. Life tends to get more enjoyable when I put importance on now. I tend to be more successful doing stuff I love to do. So its uber awesomeness.
I write about this stuff in eternity hehe ;-) thanks for sharing.

Free Powerful Capability
It is indeed most wonderful to have support for something that is very unknown and brings up fear and doubt because of it.
It is also wonderful to have examples of what is possible as this is how we evolve.
Before I was born my mother had a degree and a job that she planned on going back to. She was already on the path of much freedom as she already had a home birth arranged, no immunizations, breast feeding and such. When I was born she realized that I was pure potential that it was her and her world that had fear, doubt, limit, ingrained in almost every aspect of life. In these moments she chose to learn and realize from her child rather than impose her reality on the child. She then began the life of a student rather than a teacher.
She then had the opportunity to re-realize life. So when I was 5 and she would come out side and I would be 40ft up in a tree, she would feel her fear of what may happen to me her doubt of what I was capable of......then she would breath, realize she was of no benefit to me in such a state as shouting "be careful!" or "dont fall" or "get down" were of no benefit. She would turn around and go inside to contemplate and be with fear. These were her opportunities to be faced with her fear and doubt in my perfect ability to climb and take care of my self. For capability is natural and when one is allowed to develop ones skills one develops them based on what is important to one, and when one focuses on what is important then one excels very quickly and capably. As she would realize this it would prepare her for something else. When I was 7 we went to the grand canyon. We all got out of the car and I ran off to explore. She would come upon me in a tree over hanging the canyon hundreds of feet below. Her heart would drop into her stomach as her fear of heights came into play. She would check her feelings find a place of peace and come to me and say "Quinn come over with us there is some really cool stuff to see" I would then climb down and go see. This would then prepare her for when my brother was 14 and still not reading. My aunts and such had offered him money to learn. My family had tried many times to interest him in reading. There would of course be no rule or requirement that he should have to and we would most defiantly not try and make him feel bad about not knowing. Fear and doubt are quite present in this yet my mother knows that we all in freedom focus on what is important and if it is not important than it doesn't matter. She would know that he is indeed capable and when it is time he will learn. He did learn and it was only because of a video game. There was a game he quite liked and one must know how to read to progress in this game. He would sit there copying down all the letters of a message box (taking a half hour or so as he did not know how to spell, read or write) he would then show my mom so she could read it for him. He would then go and play again and copy more boxes. He very quickly realized that if he wanted to play this game he would need to learn to read and that maybe reading is a useful skill. This is how true learning works. When there is beneficial reason, motivation, importance it happens. He knew how to read in a very short time 2 months maybe. The first books he read were Lord Of The Rings which are the most complicated books that I have ever read.
Our only limitation is fear and doubt not limit it self. Although in my essence I am pure potential I have been touched with fear and doubt over time. I know what it is and how it works. We can all start unschooling our lives now, it is just a blessing to allow a child to come into an environment where intention is for it to be free to choose and engage when and what is important.

Divine Light
in trying to do good, evil is born...
shining a light, a shadow is cast
discovering light within, then all is bright
