Lesson 1: Question 5

[I added this question] How do I inspire the consent of my students?

I'm not really surprised there isn't much here yet. This is a difficult question, and it's one with which I'm always wrestling.

First, I really need to spend more time on my knees here.
Second, I need to incorporate consent in the schooling of my children. They are beginning the teen years now. They have to be led to see the value in everything they do. They shouldn't have to ask the standard, "Why are we doing this?" They should know why they are doing it. I have had them ask the question and look at me and before I could answer they respond with "Oh, I know--it's because..."
Third, I need to talk to people like you who have the same struggles and learn from you as well.
