The purpose of this site is to increase my ability to communicate the awe that children strike in me and the lessons I continue to learn as I spend my days in an amazing human laboratory that allows me and all who pass through the doors of number 8 Elm Street to be ourselves exactly as we are.

Misled Youth Network
http://misled-youth.org/  [report broken link]
Youth hold all the creativity, curiosity, and vitality of human nature in a concentrated form. But from a very early age, we are forced into narrow, limiting ways of thinking and being. If kids attempt to step out of these formations, they are considered crazy or criminal or misled.

Taking Children Seriously
