Do you need parenting advice on how to inspire your child to love learning? Whether you homeschool, or send your kids to public or private school, this is essential listening for your situation. Why? Because schooling has become a disaster. Your child's interests and uniqueness are disregarded, and structured curriculum and standards like Common Core place them on a conveyor belt that treats all children the same. This system crushes a child's curiosity. Your child deserves better!

Good principles in action
Revisado: 05-05-17
Any additional comments?
I love the principles of love, freedom, learning, empowerment, trust and faith expressed in Passion-Driven Education. Boyack also provides case-studies which prove the efficacy of those principles. It's inspired me to more seriously pursue my own passion-driven education and provide the right environment and guidance for my children to learn and grow. My wife is excited to read it now that I'm done.
Reading this little gem reminded me of the sentiments expressed by Albert Einstein:
"Curiosity is a delicate little plant that, aside from stimulation, stands mainly in need of freedom."
"I never teach my pupils. I only attempt to provide the conditions in which they can learn."
"Play is the highest form of research."
"It is a miracle that curiosity survives formal education."

Manufactured fear, with its negative impact on liberty, is a societal plague. There have been widespread casualties. We need an antidote. Feardom offers its readers a much-needed immunization.

Antidote for Fear
Revisado: 03-22-17
The antidotes to fear are best perceived through the lens of liberty. Connor elegantly interwove the concretes of history, data and neurological science with the abstract principles of justice and human autonomy. This fantastic read is causing me to reevaluate the whys behind the whats of my actions. When posterity looks back at our time through objective and unemotional eyes, I want my name to be cleared from the selfish and immoral acts which our generations took part in - atrocities that we often accept because our fears seem more expedient than freedom.
