Can a Catholic in good conscience unschool? Suzie Andres ably answers this question in the second edition of this unschooling classic-- and the answer is yes! Suzie Andres describes her search for the perfect educational methods for her children which led her to unschooling: "It has taken years of trial and error, along with the grace of God, for us to find the homeschooling approach that fits our family best. I have enjoyed writing about our experience in the hope of helping others to discern how God is leading them." This approach to education is not only gentle but filled with a trust in God and the natural tendency for learning that He has placed in us all. From the foreword by Ralph McInerny: "You will find here no brief against the compulsory schools. Rather homeschooling is seen as the natural way, the basic way, in which children can be taught. Schools of the usual sort are an afterthought. Doubtless some of them still do a tolerable job. Suzie Andres is far more interested in putting before the reader the positive, attractive, practical, fulfilling notion of homeschooling."

"Homeschooling with Gentleness" is Andres' own story. Subtitled "A Catholic Discovers Unschooling" it describes her journey to unschooling as well as offering philosophical arguments about why unschooling works and whether Catholics can morally unschool. In case there was any doubt given the title of this book, yes, they can.Andres does not put forth unschooling as the only way to homeschool - far from it. The introduction states, "I am not writing to recommend this approach to all Catholic homeschooling families. Rather, I am writing about what works for us, and what I suspect will work for some others. . . Please understand that I am proposing and defending as Catholic one particular way among many."In the pages that follow, she tackles defining unschooling (not an easy task!) and shows what it looks like in her home. She explores the difference between being a Catholic unschooler rather than a secular one, and encourages readers to learn to trust - both God and nature. Her last chapter is devoted to having books as friends. This is followed by a booklist of some of her and her family's favorite books.Andres writes in a very accessible manner. Reading this book is much like sitting down to have a conversation about homeschooling, and unschooling in particular, with a dear friend. She shares her struggles and triumphs, her doubts and her joys. I greatly enjoyed reading this book, found much wisdom in its pages, and would recommend both "Homeschooling with Gentleness" and "The Little Way of Homeschooling" to anyone considering homeschooling.

By Kristen Vogel This book is so helpful in seeing how one Catholic homeschool Mom unschooled her children. There is plenty of good, sound reasoning, as well as life lessons that the author brings to her readers. Mrs. Andres has done her homework and gives the reader glimpses of John Holt and others who saw unschooling as a wonderful way for children to learn and fought to make it known. Mrs. Andres also defines unschooling, so it is not just letting the children go, as some people may get the impression that it is. "Contrary to popular opinion, informed unschooling parents can strike a balance between too much teaching and total hands-off approach." The author also addresses two popular objections, citing not only personal opinion, but Church documents. There is also plenty of St. Therese in this book as well, which is where some of the gentleness comes from. There are sections on learning to trust nature which comes from God and learning to trust God so that we may be more relaxed and live a more gentle homeschool life. This book is a delightful read. If you are struggling in your homeschool or have heard about unchooling, but are unsure or fearful of what that may entail, this would be a good book for you. If you are looking for inspiration in your Catholic homeschool, you will find it here. I know that I will be re-reading this book in the years to come.
