Annie Friday is joined by Renee, an unschooling mom whose child is starting his second year back in conventional school. Renee talks about the busy rush, new milestones, and complicated feelings that come up with this return to school. We laugh about the silly school objectives and supposed child-set goals that don't exactly feel like they were set by a young person. Renee also wonders aloud about what it takes for her child's class to lose their Fun Fridays and other rewards-based systems used to manipulate children's behavior in school settings. This is part one in a three-part series on the back-to-school season from various angles of self-directed education.
