FAHA (Fredericksburg Area Homeschoolers’ Association) began as more than a homeschool support group. It started as an intentional community, secular, close-knit, and like-minded. In 2003, the founders were immersed in attachment parenting, respectful parenting, and natural living. That is still strong in us, and has continued to inform our lives as our children grow. New members have been attracted to some or all of these values and interests and we’re a strong, connected community. We live aro …

As a mother, it is normal for you to want a good relationship with your tweenage/teenage daughter. While you may want her to come to you with her problems and go shopping with her on the weekend, she may not feel the same way. Instead of spending time with you, she might prefer being with her friends. Let's support each other in strengthening our relationships with our daughter(s) by attending 1 or 2 monthly outings. This will give us a chance to meet new people, create friendships, and while at …

Families of every kind are making the shift to educate their children at home.  To quote one of our favorite online resources, "The new face of homeschooling does not look anything like it did thirty years ago....[It]is inner city, rural, suburban, hip, trendy, multilingual, simple, crafty, classic, apprenticeship-based, nature walking, take-out eating, conservative, liberal, intentional, frugal, community based and neighborhood connected. In short, it is everything you are." (Simplehomeschool.n …

Calling all people on the autism spectrum, parents of children with autism related disorders, and people in relationships with someone on the spectrum. Rob is Aspergian and works as an IT Consultant, Lauren is NT, and works as a behaviorist. We have been successfully and happily married for 2 years although we have known each other since high school. Rob wasn't diagnosed until age 28, so it has been a steep learning curve for both of us. So much so, that Lauren is back in school to become a coun …

This is a group for parents of troubled teens in the Reading area who bond together for support. I'm starting this group because parenting a troubled teen is a painful and isolating responsibility. Often, we feel that no one understands. If you feel that way, too, let's get together--not to complain, but to create a network of mutual support, understanding, and kinship.

Calling all "Aspergians" and family members! Let's get together to offer support to one another and find some adventures to enjoy together. Hiking, picnics, kayaking, biking, or computer game time in our homes. Maybe even some moms night-out activities!

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.
