The saints are often an inspiration for unschooling.
Recently, we had the feast day of St Philip Neri. Teacher of St John Bosco.
Both saints worked with boys and young men. Both saints had a lot to say about the care and education of the young.
And so both saints have been good mentors for me when it comes to unschooling.
Two quotes.
St. Philip Neri’s words: “Do as you wish, I do not care so long as you do not sin.”
"Run, jump, make noise, But do not sin…”-St. John Bosco
So...sometimes..let kids be kids.
And..sometimes..don't sweat the small stuff. Pick your battles. And keep the eternal in mind.
Very helpful for my Catholic unschooling.
