Their future? - Should we use a correspondence school? - Can a single parent take his / her children out of school? - How can I qet in touch with others who feel the same way? What will you find in GROWING WITHOUT SCHOOLING? LETTERS ------Varents tell how they took their kids out of school, and what they did next; others write about learning outside of school settings.
