Your life, time, and brain should belong to you, not an institution. This handbook is for everyone who has ever gone to school, but it is especially a book for teenagers and for people with teenagers in their lives. Inside you'll discover reasons to think about quitting school, read about how other unschoolers live, and learn how to:
- reclaim your natural ability to learn and to teach yourself
- get you parents' support, keep your friends, and stay out of legal trouble
- design a personalized education you can get excited about
- go to college without going to high school
- find volunteer positions, apprenticeships, and other work opportunities
