Описание:

This amazing book will give you the courage to think seriously about giving your child a more authentic, playful, and joyful learning journey. It cracked my imagination wide open and convinced me that something radically different is not only possible, its necessary. Everything you need to create a better future for your child, by making every day better right now, is inside these pages.
-Jane McGonigal, New York Times bestselling author of Reality is Broken: Why Games Make Us Better and How They Can Change the World

Blake Boles is back with another provocative challenge to parents and guardians. If mainstream schooling isnt working for your child, maybe its time to consider the alternatives. Yes, your kids can still go to college, And, yes, they can have a conventionally successful career. However, once families step out of the traditional education box, they never know where the path might lead.
-Daniel H. Pink, New York Times bestselling author of Drive, When, and A Whole New Mind

For some kids, school offers a positive and engaging experience. For others, its a boring, stressful, and frustrating waste of time. If your child is in the second category, why keep tormenting them? Instead, why not help them find an educational environment where they feel genuinely motivated, excited, and empowered?

In this eye-opening book, Blake Boles makes the case for leaving conventional school and taking one of the many alternative paths through K-12 that exist today. He addresses parents major concerns about unconventional education-Can my kids still go to college? Will they still be employable? How will they learn to work hard?-while highlighting the hidden benefits of self-directed learning, such as improved parent-child relationships, a more balanced decision-making process regarding college, and a heightened sense of autonomy and connection.

Drawing upon 15 years of work as a mentor and guide for adolescents in alternative and experiential learning environments-as well as his own unconventional life path-Boles weaves together narrative, theory, and research to build a powerful argument for granting children unusual levels of freedom and responsibility.
