	Description:		“Why do people take or keep their children out of school? Mostly for three reasons: they think that raising their children is their business not the government’s; they enjoy being with their children and watching and helping them learn, and don’t want to give that up to others; they want to keep them from being hurt, mentally, physically, and spiritually.” ― John Holt Ellen Fisher and Chelsea Aaron talk about their experience with homeschooling and no-curriculum unschooling. In this interview, they answer common questions about such an alternative education: how will your children be socialized? who decides what your children will learn? what about college? Children are natural learners and unschooling is an educational method that fosters curiosity, independent thinking, and the entrepreneurial mindset.
