I'm Lydia, mum of two, wife of @ashtv, and I live in Yorkshire
I'm more than that, of course, and I'd like to tell you more about me and my family's life and, more importantly, life choices. Not right now. It might take a few posts! Ultimately we do family life a little differently.
We have been raising our family along the principles of continuum/attachment/natural parenting and now, as we head into schooling with our eldest, unschooling/ life schooling/ wildschooling/ home educating.
I have been inspired by the writings of Jean Leidloff, John Holt, Sandra Dodd, to name a few (there are a lot more!) and I'm part of interesting communities on social media sites. I'm now looking to be part of a community of steemians who also want to live and parent differently.
If you want to find out more about all the parenting and schooling terms above and my other inspirations, follow me and I'll walk you though our journey so far and the journey yet to come.
Thank you for reading,
Lydia
P.S. I've found Steemit thanks to @ashtv and @anarcotech!

Hi there!
I came over here because you commented on my post, and even though it is too late to upvote this, I thought I'd say hi! You sound like a fun family and we seem to have a lot in common! We also, homeschool/unschool and have some natural life/parenting methods going on around here. I dont know that we fit into a specific 'group' but we have fun!
Nice to meet you! I hope you post some things about your life and how you do things!

Lydia, my mother taught me & my siblings at home in Oregon for years. After that, I went on to public high school and then to colleges. I was teaching English in Vietnam. Now, I am helping my mom with her gardens near Seattle. Welcome to Steemit.
