[laughs] That is true.

And like the update is, you know, we lived in France for eight years and, and there we did a mix of, uh...

We put the kids...

So we'd been traveling f- long-term for almost three years, and that was just pure world schooling, unschooling.

And then, um, we found a longer term, um, like house sit in France, and that turned into a rental.

And then we wanted the k- we, we really wanted the kids to be proficient at a second language.

It's something that, um, native English speakers are really, uh, well, not incentivized to, to learn.

Yes.

[laughs]

Uh, so that was, uh, that was very much a, a life-enriching process, uh, and a very good, uh, family bonding process, of course.

Uh, we ended up renting long-term in France.

We were house-sitting in France, and we, we house sat for about two to three months, and that was the, the longest time we'd stayed still for that two-and-a-half-year period.

And we thought to ourselves, "Hmm, this is actually kinda nice.

We want to just find somewhere to, to call home for the next year or two." So we found a place to, uh, rent long-term.

And another driving factor there was because we'd done so much of the travel and seen the difference it had on the kids and their ability to learn, we wanted...

[laughs]

[chuckles]

Oof.

So much.

Um, made me realize how programmed we had all been up until that point.

Uh, because when you start, um, this deschooling or unschooling kind of process, uh, i-it's very, it's very important that the parents go through it probably first.

If anybody listening is thinking about taking their kids out of school because the education system is completely broken and not fit for purpose, spoiler alert, it's not broken.

It's working exactly as it was designed to work.

And maybe you see this in your children as well because they're not broken or programmed, and they're way more open-minded about what really happened as-

for listening.
