Support groups come in a variety of forms, sizes, and focus.
Legalities are examined, from the constitutional foundations to the local district s principals and their power. Part three moves into solutions and involves curriculum and the techniques to accomplish them. Curriculum talks about basics, not in the reading writing and arithmetic sense, but more in the vein of philosophy, music, art, language, magic, human relations, ecology, spirituality, cooking, OurStory, real health etc. It advocates child directed and self-referencing as the major tools that need to be exercised and kept alive. Techniques involves ways to share the learning experience as partners on the journey of life as apposed to authority figures that know it all and coerce learning.
