From their intro:
Valerie Fitzenreiter's daughter Laurie never spent a day of of her childhood in a traditional classroom. When she was pregnant with Laurie, Valerie read a book called "Summerhill," about a progressive school in England where students were given such a vast amount of freedom they weren't even obligated to go to class. It changed her philosophy on parenting forever.
If Laurie wanted to spend the entire day reading a book or playing computer games, Valerie allowed it.
I remember growing up feeling like I could try school if I wanted to. But I never remember wanting to.
- Laurie Chancey
Dick talks to Valerie and Laurie about life in an un-schooled household.
