Going to start posting more about our HE journey :)

My daughter is 16 in June and has been HE since she was 13 due to an unsupportive school environment where her difficult menstrual cycles and social anxiety were punished.

Today, she watched a documentary about the Outback (Surviving the Outback) and practiced some piano scales before doing some work on her Music course with #openlearn which is an amazing resource for older home edders.

This evening she will help me cook dinner, and wants to watch another doc later about #Aboriginal history/culture as the previous doc peaked her interest. Not sure which yet so open to suggestions :)

Badge shop is open, and most designs are in stock! If you need any little presents for friends, it might be worth a look :-)

(plus a bisexuality zine and a creativity zine)

"Proponents of SDE come to it from various perspectives. Many come from a perspective focusing on democratic values. Imposed education always involves a violation of what most democratic thinkers regard as basic human rights – the rights of self-determination, free assembly and free speech, among others. If children can become well educated without coercion, then it would seem to be immoral to subject them to coercive methods."
