Dayna has been inspiring parents for almost two decades by sharing her experience through natural birth, attachment parenting and Unschooling. She loves travelling world over helping families change their lives by changing their parenting paradigm and bringing more peace and connection to their lives with their children. In this thought-provoking episode, Dayna Martin shares her journey of advocating for unschooling. She highlights the importance of listening to her children over societal norms. Through exploring the unschooling philosophy, she distinguishes between authoritarian parenting, which models power rules, and partnership parenting, where everyone's needs matter. Dayna believes that partnership parenting is the model for a peaceful world. She also sheds light on how traditional schooling was created and how parents were forced at gunpoint to attend compulsory education in America. This leads to an insightful discussion on what an unschooling day looks like and the role of technology in unschooling. Dayna makes a compelling argument that controlling technology is what causes negative behavior, not the technology itself and why we need to connect with our children through their interests without control or limits? Finally, we learn about the conditioning – learning to trust children and to start trusting yourself again. Dayna's son became a blacksmith because he was allowed to play with fire, highlighting the power of unschooling in allowing children to follow their passions and discover their own path in life. We explore questions such as whether we have given up our right to spend time with our children due to the public school system, and why you’re considered a radical and rebel for trusting your kids. Through discussing the pandemic's impact on unschooled children and the benefits of deschooling, we discover how unschooling is not just an educational approach but a way of life that facilitates a child-led learning experience. Other topics tackled in this episode include obstacles parents face when leaning into unschooling, the unhealthy relationships created by the current schooling system, and whether working mothers can create a safe space for unschooling. Ultimately, we are left with the question of whether we are raising our children to be who they truly are or who we want them to be.
