Pam Sorooshian links, Deb Lewis lists, Strewing

I added some links to my Pam Sorooshian page. The writing was out there, but now will be more easily found: http://sandradodd.com/pamsorooshian Not a new page, but a reminder (and it has been linked another place or two): Economics of Restricting TV Watching of Children http://sandradodd.com/t/economics.html I also added to the Deb Lewis lists. Sometimes someone's writing speaks easily to a particular reader, and its nice to be able to give them more of the voice they like. http://sandradodd.com/deblewis My writing, from a post on unschooling discussion, added to http://sandradodd.com/strew/how There have been a couple of discussions in which people said strewing was manipulative and sneaky. I don't see it that way at all. If I know what kinds of things my children could use being exposed to to be more well rounded, or to "fill in gaps" in what they know, or to take them to another level of understanding, bringing those things up in physical or conversational ways is no more "manipulative" than bringing more fruit into the house if there hasn't been much fruit consumption lately, or bringing them bottles of water on hot summer days. I don't need to force them to eat oranges or drink water, but I can notice it might be good for them and make it appealing.
