I am really wanting to transition to unschooling but have a lot of hang ups when it comes to reading. Kayleen is in the Aspergers spectrum and is not reading at age 8. Ok she reads a tiny bit but honestly has no interest in it at all, it's like pulling teeth. Even though it seems stupid I have the deep fear that she will never read, I know it's dumb but it feels real. That is why I continue to push her, even when my heart feels un easy about pushing her. What do you suggest. I would love some advice. She does like writing, copying things on the computer and off books but when it comes to me teaching her reading it's not too fun. Thank you so much!THE ARDEBILI'Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02341548858444325411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2465910115586305912.post-44644078463013781452010-05-12T23:47:55.831-05:002010-05-12T23:47:55.831-05:00That's so awesome.

I love your philosophy on life and family. I had not explored the unschooling idea in depth previously, we do not have children as of yet, but you have given me MUCH to consider.

Sounds like a win-win-win all around! (Meets my need for hope, as well).<br /><br />How gratifying and exciting it must be for you all.
