Bio
I am a writer and musician living in the Gulf Islands of BC, Canada. My three now-grown daughters grew up without formal schooling, and I am a keen advocate of self-directed learning. I am the author of A Path of Their Own: Helping Children Educate Themselves, published in 2014, in which I explore how treating children with "radical respect" - seeing them as they are, not as we might wish them to be - allows them to flourish emotionally and intellectually.
