		<description><![CDATA[The rhetoric – in the media, on social networking sites… – about “unschooling” is in overdrive these days. Whether the discussion is positive or negative in nature, the phenomenon is often breathlessly and incorrectly described as new or unorthodox. In fact, unschooling life learning is the way people naturally learn and school is the new-fangled way of doing things. Real learning has always been driven by interest and curiosity rather than by artificial motivation by teachers using a one-size-fits all agenda. Schooling is a relatively recent – and ineffective – attempt to standardize the learning process, but it can’t remove the learner’s control over learning. ]]></description>

So insulting each other's philosophies is unproductive, both to individuals and to the homeschooling movement.]]></description>
