Monday Redos-day : Uber Unschooling!

By : Dr. Jules Norton


Here is the truth, the reality, that only the insane deny.

You can't force somebody to learn.

You can't force somebody to want to learn.

And if you try you will permanently eradicate both the ability and the desire to do so.

Schools are based on forced learning. If you HAVE to be there, if you HAVE to learn on somebody else's timetable, if you HAVE to learn in the mode they dictate, if you HAVE to demonstrate what you have learned on demand, you are the victim of forced learning, which means you haven't learned anything at all.

The evidence ? How many people who have been through the school system read or write ?

Almost none.

Their numbers are vanishingly rare.

And that is what the inherently coercive school system was designed to produce.

Passive people who believe that they DON'T seek truth and knowledge out of CHOICE, who just don't realize the system designed school to batter the desire to learn out of them, to ensure unquestioning compliance.

The inevitability of a coercive education is that skills, like information, are never acquired in a concrete, lasting fashion.

The "glue" that allows ANYTHING learned to be retained is is that it was freely chosen by the learner, so that which is learned at the behest of another has no "glue" and cannot "stick".

This is the point of compulsory schooling.

Think about it, If people were not forced into literacy then they might freely choose it.

In which case they would learn to read and remain able to read

And then they might learn what the ruling classes preferred they did not.

So the fastest method to create mass illiteracy is to FORCE literacy upon them, literacy that will fade posty coercion, leaving a person so put off from learning by the coercive education that they endured that they remain a member of the lifelong illiterate.

School is a conspiracy. An inoculation called coercive learning. To make sure that nobody is infected by the virus called "I want to know how to read, write and learn". As usual vaccinations are the enemy of the people and the tool of a government intent on harming the people it is supposed to serve.

The reality is that the illiteracy figures are misleading, they count only the innately rebellious, who refused to conform to synthetic testing, but they do not count the greater bulk, the huge numbers, damn near the majority, who REGRESS from proficiency to near illiteracy very rapidly once they are free from required learning.

Vast swathes of anecdotal evidence, and our own instinctual response to what is abundantly obvious to anybody who refuses to conform to the mind set of "worker ant" culture, recognize and prove that forced acquisition is not real, long term acquisition.

We see the same with studies in the animal kingdom.

Observations of the utterances of a parrot badgered into repeating "pretty Polly" demonstrated that when you cease to demanding the parrot repeat the phrase they fall silent....and remain silent.

Left to its own devises (in post coercion trauma), the parrot will not seek to mimic again in the future as a reaction to enforced learning.

Whereas wild parrots are widely observed to pick up a wide ranging vocabulary from other species, creating a sub form of communication between their own kind. A direct result and example of autonomous learning born from intrinsic motivation, which contrasts strongly with the experience of the parrot who "went to school".

The parrot study is unequivocal evidence that we should NOT force learning, including the acquisition of skills, on human beings. And the government KNOWS this !


If you are reading this, it is not because you learned to read at school.

You are reading this because you are one of the lucky few, as a free thinker your greater than average desire to learn was left more intact than the norm.

Sub consciously you retaught yourself the skill, on your own terms, after your forced skill acquisition gained in the classroom faded.

Most people don't even realize they are doing it, because sub consciously they do not wish to recognize the great harm done to them by the powers that be. These are you typical unschoolers, or "very relaxed" homeschoolers.

The very special few, who from the earliest age resisted the mind control of the power mongers, are self observant enough to be relatively aware of this phenomenon. On some level they consciously recognize the truth of how they lost and sought to re-acquire the potential to make sense of the squiggles on that page. These are the unschooling elite. The leaders who light the path for the more average unschooler, who still struggles with clarity of vision and comprehension of what harm coercive learning has done to them and those around them.

These precious few, non sheeple, self observant types who recognize, sub consciously at worst or consciously at best, the extent they had to relearn even the most basic skills, all over again post compulsory education, have the lucky children. Because these are the kids who IF they chose to learn to read will only have to learn once, rather than twice, the second time around shackled by the scars left by a coercive education.

And these are the children that will be the ones who form the cacophony demanding that the old order end.

Silenced no more by the gag forced into the mouths of babes as they are forced every younger into classrooms with the "smiling" teacher whose facial contortions lasts just as long as it takes to bang the door shut in the face of the bleating parents, themselves the product of the same tired old system of control, thus left impotent to see it for what it is.

So now you know why they fear us and seek to persecute us out of existence.

Because the future belongs to the unschoolers.

Because they who chose to be free, will not only be the emancipated, they will become the emancipators, by leading by example.

Did you really expect that to make you popular in a world full of those too afraid to step out of the relentless, uniform march dictated for them ? Did you really think they would allow you to challenge the status quo without repercussions ? Do you really think they won't seek to destroy us given that we are the greatest threat to their perfect plan of complete mind control ? We need to spread the message faster, wider, with greater emphasis while we still have time, before we are silenced FOREVER.

We have to underline the message until the masses see it. You can't force learning, school is forced learning, you went to school, you were forced to learn to read, and that is why you are illiterate today. WAKE UP and stop fighting those of us who wish to save us all, by making a stand against the powers that be who would leave us all imprisoned by IGNORANCE, cunningly disguised as providing an free education for all !

Exciting competition !!!

Guest Blog By Elderberry


No Longer Enough !!


We anti vaxxers must move with the times!!

Waving placards, screaming on court steps trying to look like there are load on us when the news cameras are rolling, frothing all over parenting forums and blogs....it's just not enough anymore.

A new media is taking the wrong message to the people, and it is very seductive to the young, which is terrible considering that watching the video transmits theta particle rays that convince people to go out and get immunized !!



We do not have a huge Big Pharma conspiracy pay off at our disposal in the manner of ZDoggMD, so we can't make a big budget video like he did, but where there is a will there is a way !!

Considering how many of our children are unschooled there is a whole sea of creativity just waiting to be tapped, so today we announce a competition for the Anti ZdoggMD Anti vax response.

The winner will received detailed construction tips to make a placenta teddy !!


A natural mama's firm favorite !

Please leave your rap in the comments for judging.

Please see the "No you can't" video response to Will.I.AM's "Yes, we can" for inspiration, we need to reach for the stars just like the McCain camp did !

Uber Unschooling Vindicated

By The Uber Unschooler





It is a proud proud day in the Uber Unschooler household.

Zallion, my oldest, has struggled with reading and writing. Probably due to an undiagnosed learning disability that would be COERCIVE to treat. Not to mention an exhibition of MISTRUST in her ability to know what she needs, by having her tested.

After locking herself in the trailer at the bottom of the homestead veggie plot with her boyfriend, Wolfbaggin (aged 34, but here too Uber Unschoolers know to trust their children when, how and who with they need to explore with), Zallion has produced a wondrous work.

Obviously since handwriting is an obsolete skill she typed it, and created an original piece of work to take center stage in the forthcoming publicity campaign to promote Uber Unschooling.

It has been sent to the printers and will be appearing on billboards and local TV programming any day now (=

What mother who has brow beaten the Nay Sayers lamenting an illiterate 17 year old wouldn't respond with a middle finger raised, to demonstrate how happy she in that now they can see that a lack of manipulation\coercion combined with 100% trust and space has borne such beautiful "I told you so" shaped fruit ?

My daughter is proof that if you don't hot house your children by COERCIVELY teaching them, they blossom into fragrant flowers, capable of sheer genius, as I'm sure the Bard himself would agree.

Wolfbaggin (harrowed, depleted, sad and brain damaged from being forced into formal education until the age of 24) said he did nothing more that sit back quietly to observe, leaving her unaided to flow with the learning process and watch in awe at my superior parental decisions paying off.

He said quite literally  her skill at forming words appeared as by osmosis. 

He is overwhelmed by the creativity I have allowed to be created in her.

As am I, especially at my intelligence at creating and choosing Uber Unschooling

As you to will be, when you read on.

(I hope when you read the title you'll understand the art work Wolfbaggin designed himself to accompany the words)


Appley Unschooly Education, Naturally Grown
An Original Work of Sheer Genius
by Zallion Norton (17)

"Here's to the mad as a box of frogs ones. The weirdos. The mutinous. The zealots. The square pegs who shove their elbows out, refusing to fit into the square holes.


The ones who see things differently after careful research on Google tells them they should. They like rules, an opportunity to get stroppy. And they love the status quo, cos it is road map to show them how to stand out.


You can try to have a conversation with them, disagree with them, quote them, look in disbelief at them, roll your eyeballs at them or call CPS on them.


About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they won't let you.


Maybe they have to be nutJOBS.


How else can you stare at an non reading, video game obsessed 15 year old and see an effective education ?


Or sit in a chaos of screaming kids and hear learning in action




While some see us as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because we who are crazy enough to think we can make up our own meaning of the word education, are the ones who do."

Guest Crafter: FREE Lap Book For Home Schoolers

By: Elderberry Wienham Smythe Jones
"Home Birth"

A fantastic resources, adaptable to suit all age ranges from pre
schoolers to high school !


Take your folders and fold them ready to form the lapbook that will hold
the mini books. For lap book virgins who need help visualizing the
finished result, please see the fabulous examples on (unfortunately)
other more mundane, unimaginative and less family friendly topics here
http://www.squidoo.com/lapbooking


Mini book one

The Placenta

Envelope book, inside the envelope place a small Ziploc bag with a piece
of the placenta. On the cover of the book the child should write (or
draw) an age appropriate description of what a placenta is. The emphasis
should be on it's primary function as a centerpiece for postpartum
rituals and other ceremonial uses.


Mini book 2

The Bliss !

Zigzag book, as the book pulls out each page should exhibit the maternal
face in its many forms as it shows that there is no bliss without pain !
This is also a cool photography project if you are currently pre Home
Birth Bliss. Get you hands on a (waterproof !!) camera with easy to use
buttons. Toddlers may need you to role play the birth so they can work
out how to use the camera and the trickier aspects of "in focus" close ups.


Mini book 3

The Midwife

Flap book to show the history of the midwife. Full details of how they
face persucution head on having heroinoically returned to the front
line, embattled and bloodied, but committed to continue saving women
from the knife wielding doctors who birth rape ! You could even have a
separate book for notable midwives of the modern age and a timeline of
their martyrdom by arrest.


Mini book 4

Medicine in birth

Small card book with a quick mention that birth is natural, not an
illness, and there are only variations of normal, so no medicine, other
than a few herbs, are ever really needed.


Mini book 5

Waiting for Bliss !

Tabbed book, one for each of the 23-60 pages (depending on which
variation of normal pregnancy is for YOUR baby) should be used to give
an idea of what is happening to the mother in each week of pregnancy.
Since there is SO much information which cannot all be fitted in, it is
best to focus on the more important aspects and create a weekly record
of mommy's feelings, hopes, dreams and fears about an unnecessarian
being forced upon her in the case of an unnecessary transfer for an
imaginary emergency.


Mini book 6

Mommy's BIRTH

Large fold out book, a photo documentation of mommy's birth, one mini
book for each day of labour. If it goes on for more than 7 days you
might want to think about 2\3 days per mini book as a space saving
exercise. For additional spelling practice leave room on each page,
under the photo, to write hard to spell vocabulary like "crowning" and
"hemorrhage".



I hope this gives you a place to start with homeschooling home birth as
a family ( =
