Grassroots Mothering

Grassroots Mothering

http://grassrootsmothering.blogspot.com

This blog includes many subdivisions to a grassroots-style mothering: education (the decision to “teach my own”), community (surround yourself with others that share your values and lifestyle), child care (using the community as a resource to help raise children), non hierarchical parenting (relying on “negotiating win/win solutions to conflicts” rather than rules), work (create a home business), radical feminist separatism (create an intentional community around “women, women’s concerns, women’s politics, woman-owned businesses and organizations, natural pregnancy, exercise, and holistic medicine. Articles detail my personal path through life. I also intertwine stories of like-minded women I have met along the way.
