RE: Unschooling Explained in Metaphor
There isn't an appropriate response. The other person is still deep in brainwashing.
When children want to learn, they learn at an incredible speed.
When children don't want to learn, they barely learn at all.
So, if you want to teach a child something, then
A. wait till they want to learn it.
B. force it into them.
Which works better? If you choose A, they may never learn the thing, because they may never get interested in it.
We just do not have much data on path A yet.
I suggest that you read lots of homeschooling success stories, and relate these to the mother.
