Dayna Martin, over at
The Sparkling Martins, is my unschooling hero. I met Dayna through her Yahoo group. She was amazingly supportive when I was going through a rough patch, talking with me on the phone several times. I have been a long time believer in the Law of Attraction and through Dayna I learned about Jerry and Esther Hicks. Everyday I get an inspirational quote from Jerry and Esther via email. I found this recent quote very interesting.
Parents don't want their children to make the wrong decisions, so they don't allow them to make the decision. And then the child becomes dependent, and then the parent resents that, and it gets off into a blameful thing early on. If you are encouraging children to do all that they can do -- and not squelching the natural eagerness that is within them, so that they can shine and thrive and show you and themselves how good they are at adapting to physical experience -- then everyone wins.

Lovely, isn't it?
