Tonight's rebroadcast is on unschooling - generally a subculture of home schooling, but occasionally in a school setting too. This program originally aired in 2008.

Have you been unschooled, or taught unschooled students? What do you think of this approach to a child's education?

With as much as the unschooling lady was talking about her faith in Christianity I'm surprised you didn't press her about injecting her faith into her children, and how she could possibly hope to remain secular in her approach to educating them. Many people who are now religious extremists were educated in such ways. One of the main benefits to standard schooling is exposure to a multitude of role models and intelligence in absence of religious influence or pressure.
