I came out as an unschooler. Can't remember what I was last time I took the quiz.

Me!
I have a problem with the 'What's on your dining room table' question. Where's the "Crumbs, peanut butter smears, and a plate or two left by those who forgot to clear their places" answer?? THAT (sadly) describes our table at almost all times. Our schoolroom table (which was the dinette table once upon a time) is usually so covered with books and "school" stuff that you can't actually see the surface of the table.

You have describe the table situation in our house perfectly! Except there would be babies crawling underneath picking up stray goldfish crackers.
I also said "YES" to the hose-down question...in fact, my kids hosed each other today after hours of making lakes and rivers and mud in our big sandbox.
I was the "Abraham Lincoln", and of all of them, this is probably the closest description, but I could fit bits of each category, except Martha Stewart!

That's me! My children love coming home and running in the back yard to hose each other off or run through the sprinkler.

I chose the "hose off the kids" response, too! We do that all the time around here (weather permitting, of course!). I also got "Mr. Potato Head"!

Another hoser Abraham Lincoln here.
And I was thinking when I answered that, SURELY the 4Real moms would not pick this -- they probably would pick

Swiss Family Robinson If you can grow it, pick it, preserve it, or butcher it, you own it. Otherwise, you do without. Youd prefer to live off-grid from the power company, since youre nearly self-sufficient already. You enjoy unit studies for the way they utilize all facets of life and truly incorporate life and education as a whole, not as separate entities.
hahaa I guess that is me!
