This is a group for parents (or potential parents) to share ideas about non-authoritarian parenting. The whole family is invited, but some events may be more appropriate than others for young children. Blind obedience to authority is the plague of our society. Many are coming to understand that the root of this problem is in the family. Traditional parenting often teaches "might makes right" and "obedience is a virtue." This is a group to explore the alternatives, including collaborative pro …

I started this meetup because, as an Indigo type person, I have found that we are often misunderstood, and so usually don't get the kind of support we need.  Parents and teachers are also not educated about the unique traits and learning styles of Indigos (often mis-labelled as ADHD or ADD.  According to a study performed by Tober and Carroll, indigo children function poorly in conventional schools due to their rejection of authority, being smarter than their teachers, and a lack of response to …

This is a social meet-up group. All are welcome.  I found that I enjoyed setting up events designed around having fun and enjoying what life has to offer.  I found meetup groups that offered events for singles or  couples or  single parents but not for everyone. Many of my friends are single  while others are couples, some with, and some without kids. So I have designed a group for everyone. If you are single or married, with a family or a single parent, all are welcome to join in our adventures …

A Living Family: Your support, Your Family. When I was a child, my parents would tell me stories of their childhoods growing up in India. Living communally, in a compound with extended families, the children grew and played together while the adults shared together in the joys and tasks of daily life. Even as a child, I understood the power of community to enrich the life of the individual. I gather that it was a difficult time, making life happen with the resources available, but I also heard t …
