Our schools have become vast factories for the manufacture of
robots. We no longer send our young to them primarily to be
taught and given the tools of thought, no longer primarily to be
informed and acquire knowledge; but to be "socialized"—which
in the current semantic means to be regimented and made to
conform. |

Unschooling or Homeschooling? |
|
Billy Greer |
|
What is the difference between unschooling and homeschooling? At one time they were just two terms for the same thing, so the question was like asking what the difference is between a car and an automobile. Today, homeschooling has remained a generic term while unschooling has come to refer to a specific type of homeschooling. So now the question is like asking what the difference is between a Ferrari and a car. Just what is it about unschooling that differentiates it from other types of homeschooling enough to warrant its own term?
