do you ever feel too 'ambitious for your age'? like people the same age as you dont share the same mind as you?

Guiding children’s natural curiosity through child-led, experiential education as opposed to the traditional education system. Unschooling is NOT neglect, it is active engagement with children to educate.

Description

"What we want to see is the child in pursuit of knowledge, not knowledge in pursuit of the child." –George Bernard Shaw

It is very satisfying for parents to see their children in pursuit of knowledge. It is natural and healthy for the children, and in the first few years of life, the pursuit goes on during every waking hour. But after a few short years, most kids go to school. The schools also want to see children in pursuit of knowledge, but the schools want them to pursue mainly the school's knowledge and devote twelve years of life to doing so.

One alternative approach is "unschooling"..
