"If a child learns how to read, measure, discern worldviews, cook a meal, grow a garden, fix a tire, and treat a wound, is he ready for the real world? If she learns how to research, how to write, change a diaper, recognize flora and fauna and actually care, is she ready for the real world? I think before we throw around this notion that children who are educated in alternative ways aren’t ready for the “real world”, we ought to not only ask for a definition of terms, but take them in hand and have a real look around at how we really live our lives."
From ch 2 regarding getting kids ready for the "real world". Book drops Oct 9.
