The Homeschooler Next Door

• Dec. 2, 2006 - The Anti Dr. Phil Show

 

After the ballyhooed Dr. Phil show aired last Friday, we decided not to take this lying down.  Neata, a homeschool mom and clinical psychologist, talks with us about *the research* that Dr. Phil may have been referring to in his show. 

Now we did email Dr. Phil's people asking specifically what research he was referring to, but have received no answer to date.  So Neata discusses the  research that has been done on homeschooling children and what are the research findings.

She also discusses the way Dr. Phil could have done the show if he was serious about presenting homeschooling as an alternative educational choice instead of just wanting to show homeschooling in a skewed format to gain ratings.

Finally, because there are varieity of flavors of unschooling, Chris from Lubbock talks about the various shades of unschooling.  A mom of 4, she understands  the ebb and flow of unschooling.

We hope you enjoy the show.
