2011 TUC – Francette’s Talk: Unstrung Heroes

Francette’s Talk: Unstrung Heroes

There are parts of parenting that make us feel good; you know the stuff we do with, and for, our kids that generate a sense of satisfaction in the process. But, there’s the other side of parenting where we can feel challenged. Sometimes we have to deal with our own anger, our own frustrations, our own sadness, our own confusion, while simultaneously helping our kids do the same. It can be easy to feel overwhelmed at times. It’s these challenges that allow us to grow as parents, and allow our kids to see our humanness, as well as our uniqueness, and most importantly how to navigate through these feelings. Francette will share her epiphanies of parenting through the challenges while staying true to her radical unschooling beliefs.
