+asoka nelson yeah, my daughter told me about Khan Academy, after I found her teaching herself javascript from there when she was in high school, I was so happy to see her learn things like this on her own without being told to.

Riley, you're going to be an awesome dad. Your little man isn't even able to walk yet and you are already wanting to know what online schools are the best! lol. I'd give it at least 4 years before worrying about that, because by then things will have changed. lol. Huge props to you! I never had my dad around, he could care less if I'm even still alive.

Hey mate, that is the 2nd time you've played that clip from the audio book. Being a loyal fan of yours, and being from Alabama, I suggest you visit the state before you alienate some of your viewers with audio book clips that are categorically wrong. Comparing Alabama to Mexico and other 3rd world countries is completely insulting.

If i was having a kid these days i think growing up on the ocean would be the way to do it . He will get to start life in the last wilderness with loving parents . Can not see how it could go wrong and hey if he loves land and sea Australia is awesome . I spent seven years there hope to get back next year , great solo vids by the way :)

Thomas Green - 5 years ago

I am a product of an Alabama education, four years of undergrad and law school so your book can bad mouth Alabama as a third world country, but he is mistaken. Saying that we homeschooled our two kids when we were in Tennesse and later Alabama because of violence in the schools. My children graduated with honors from college, so homing works. If you need information, I am sure my wife work be glad to provide in information.

Sailing La Vagabonde - 5 years ago

Read the book, he doesn’t badmouth Alabama.

Steve Holett - 5 years ago

Early Education: People will say - No public schools because I don't want my kid to be brainwashed in X way.... then they do home education and then immediately brain wash their kid to their thinking - whether it's politics, environment, religion or whatever. The key is to truly - truly expose your kid to all points of view - not just liberal - not just conservative - not just vegan -not just "environmentally conscience" (whatever that means) but rather truly provide an open education in which they can decide what to believe and think about the world. Typically people think they're providing an open eduction - when they're just trying to create a robot of their thinking.

Shane Bowman - 5 years ago

I was homeschooled my whole life in Hawaii. It gave me the opportunity to surf, sail, and spearfish whenever I wanted. I never used an online program; only hardcopy curriculum and some khan academy videos when I needed explanation with harder math and physics concepts. I received a real high school diploma through a local school, did well on my SAT, and now I’m at the California Maritime Academy pursuing a bachelors. I don’t think you need an online program or people telling you what to do or teach. You’ll be surprised what you can do with just textbooks.

What I like (and admire) in Riley is that he never takes more fish than is needed. He never really hoards them, although he certainly seems to be capable to catch more than he actually does. Dinner, some for the freezer or a party with the neighbours, and he is done. I like that a lot in him.

My two cents on education is that schools (home or otherwise) are not where you learn about life. School is to learn history, facts, and the basics. It doesn't teach work ethic, integrity, ingenuity, or any of the other traits that make a person independent and strong.

What I've found matters most in life is all the other every day experiences - how you handle adversity and challenges, your daily habits, how you treat and care for others (family and strangers), and how you make them feel.

I saw Valentine on Joe Rogan, and like most men I fell a little in love with her. Thank Neptune she's got her resident fckboy there to prevent any excess flirting.

Sailing La Vagabonde - 5 years ago

+QualeQualeson yeah just the fckboy.

QualeQualeson - 5 years ago

+Sailing La Vagabonde I agree totally and apart from the fckboy part (which was a flippancy added for comedic value) I can't see how I'm misbehaving :) All this time that I followed your channel, I always read between the lines and/or put the content into a wider/deeper context. It's what I do.
So, sometimes my edge cuts a little, (it wouldn't be an edge otherwise) And sometimes my intentions are misinterpreted. But for all the backlash I may receive, I'll never be part of the "picture perfect Facebook postcard crowd" that typically dominates these types of topics. As far as I'm concerned, they don't really manage any kind of truth, and I'd rather be detested than following suit. Thank you for responding.

I have given it more thought to your encounter at anchor with two loyal patron's. You should introduce rules of engagement , and they should be available on all of your home pages and Patreon agreement. These are absolutely necessary for your family security.

Cam and Jaiden - 5 years ago

My 10 year old son in our and I travel full time in a caravan and we are child lead educators, or unschoolers it's been coined. I am a formally trained educator and really have had my eyes opened to just how great it is to educate a child using their interests, their questions and the things we come across in daily life rather than a pre-made curriculum. Being able to facilitate a holistic education that is tailored to my sons needs has been the difference between him hating learning, and having a passion and yearning for more knowledge.

I have a blog and facebook page where I write a lot about child lead education and how it works. Feel free to check it out at http://camandjaiden.com or http://facebook.com/gonecaravaning - If you have any questions, just ask!

Anthea Elise - 5 years ago

I am not a parent and have no desire to be any time soon if ever, so take this with a grain of salt. But a while back I got thinking about education and what I'd potentially do if I ever had any of the little blighters. Montessori and Steiner schools appealed to me, where helping children to think for themselves and develop critical thinking skills is important as opposed to "traditional" schooling where kids are taught what to think and what is apparently important to know. I was attracted to that idea, and also homeschooling. But I think there's nothing better than real life , like what you're doing, (not the organised reality that most are used to) to teach people the really important stuff.
On another topic I watched Captain Fantastic recently and think it might be up your alley if you haven't already seen it.
I'd love some more book recommendations from Riley!

MrJoshESL - 5 years ago

So here is a question for you. How come in almost every video recently you are hunting down fish with a spear, cooking and eating it and no bugger makes a fuss? Yet if I was to film myself shooting a rabbit and roasting it over a campfire, there would be a moral outcry and the video would probably get demonetized.

Thumper Hunts - 5 years ago

Riley thinking kids ..don’t worry again. But it’s good to think about education and future live on board.
This can’t be named problem but it’s a challenge for the parents. So address is with the heart. Teaching on board is done before and proven that most kids grown wiser than regular. Make sure they can interact with others even adults. Don’t spoil them with toys..
let them make there own ..help them kids to be creative. Challenge their brains ..

Love how he mentioned Alabama. I received most of my education in a rural town in Alabama, and trust me when I say I am so thankful I was homeschooled for my last three years of high school. I learned so much more, that I never would have been taught in public school, in those three years. Currently, I am set to graduate with Latin honors, and I believe that have a lot to do with the motivation and confidence in the decisions I made while being homeschooled. When you have every possibility at your fingertips you have to be sure the decision you are making is the right one, and stand firm in it, or it will drive you mad!

But as someone else has mentioned, don't worry about it too much. Tech will definitely change in the short time it takes for them to grow up.
My biggest advice as a father would be to make sure you and Elay read books to him every night. This paves the way for a passion for learning (and helps develop language skills ).

Keep the kid out of the institutionalized programing. What he can learn from the people that love him and have his best interests at heart, his dad and mom, is all he needs.

Peter Murphy - 5 years ago

Hey, been enjoying your videos for years but don't think I've ever commented before. I'm building a small sail boat to learn in with my son and one day we can hopefully graduate to a big one! I am a teacher here in Melbourne so thought I might add in a wee thought that I am sure you have been contemplating. Homeschooling can work and for your situation with the boat and online business it may be the best pathway for your family. But education is more than learning things, it's about learning to work with others and developing socially and emotionally, as a father of a shy 8 year old I have no idea how he would do that in isolation even with great parents ;-) They need other kids around mate - that's the tricky bit. Perhaps you could take the kid out of school for a few months every year to keep the sailing and videos going and then film a bit of land life for the rest of the time, think your followers are locked in now and would be interested in whatever you get up to. Best of luck with it all - parenthood is great, knackering, but great - you'll love it!

Just thought I'd add that with AI and 4th industrial revolution upon us - interpersonal skills and creativity are going to be the most valuable human traits. I'm sure creativity won't be a problem but the interpersonal skills need a lifetime to develop.

I've successfully raised 4 kids, all genius level. Best thing to teach your kids is how to think not what to think- very deep topic but You'll never go wrong. Current education systems around the world basically teach pure stupidity, I wouldn't trust anything taught in schools as it's a mindset of teaching what to think not how to think. It's basic programming to be successful within systems designed to collapse over time.

good reading material, I think it's a MUST is all books on Holodynamics. It's a theory that should be discussed and debated. it's the best research I've found in my entire life as a researcher.

We homeschool our two girls. It is so much better if you are able to do it. Schools have 1 teacher to many kids that is why it takes so long each day. Basically it is a day care. Your kid doesn’t get all the attention the whole time. At home you can devote as much time as you like each day to teaching life skills and books. Most days take us 1.5 hrs of actual school work for our 3rd grader.

The most important thing is to instill a love of learning in Lenny. Since you so obviously love learning he will get it by example. Sometime back I gave you a list of Nel Noddings books about education. She is a legend in the field as well as a brilliant philosopher and feminist. Fortunately the schools here in Mt. View, CA and the surrounding area, are outstanding, but in school or out, learning to learn, and to love learning, is the most important component. Lifelong learning is the only way to thrive, or even fully survive, in the modern world. You and Elayna are going to totally rock as parents!

Kellie Harvey - 5 years ago

We use complete education Australia.. few sailors recommended it n weve found it great raising kids on a yacht, all accessed on line can add as much or little as u want eg, maths- knots, fuel costs per mile etc, fish size weight, navigation etc phonetic alphabet, u can teach what u think is appropriate cheers

For Online Education: K12 all day everyday. It is amazing! You can work with teachers, other classmates, and the assignments are online. They offer Kindergarten to 12th grade, at least in the U.S. They teach a mainly classical education that's not biased specifically one way or another as far as ideologies are concerned. It's very well rounded. Definitely check it out! https://www.k12.com/

poruatokin - 5 years ago

With regard to education, I think it is far more important to first focus on socializing with other toddlers as much as possible. My daughter grew up in Japan and went to a day care center from 18 months old starting with an hour per day and building up to full days. This was not, not because of career requirements but because we wanted her to integrate with other kids as early as possible. When it came to kindergarten (age 3) and elementary school (age 6), she was already incredibly confident interacting with other kids and being away from parents. We firmly believed it helped her through her formal education.

Homeschooling mate, no question. We've homeschooled our eight kids, and they've turned out amazing. But I'm biased of course. Don't be frightened of teaching, it's just like showing the little guy one day how to sheet a winch. Lenny will be a wiz on the boat before he's five - you watch. The wonderful thing is it will unfold before you, as quick as that. Might even make a bona fide Crows forward pocket.

David Colomer - 5 years ago

Although I think you shouldn’t think about it right now, I have never thought homeschooling is a good option. Knowing just 2 people that have gone through the system, I cannot say it’s empirically proven its bad, but just in general. One of them attends my course in university, and although she’s brilliant at mathematics (Istudy maths and physics) she has never had many social interactions because of homeschooling, and as such was as if she had missed half her childhood/teenage years. Another girl I know was homeschooled cause she wanted to be a tennis player and a similar fate arrived, but she was just totally concentrated on success, so it’s a different story. I guess you’ll think about it when he grows up more, but careful with that.

jim nickles - 5 years ago

Reilly, it's Not Hard to raise a Boy. First, KEEP him AWAY from Public School. So he won't be subject to all the Negativity, like bullies, peer pressure, and the Pussification all the female staff WILL Bombard him with. Next, teach him to Read WELL, for Reading is CRITICAL. You can Learn ANYTHING Alone IF you can Read. The rest is not too complicated. Teach him all that YOU Know he will Need to be a Good, Solid, QUALITY MAN. To Ride, Shoot Straight, and Speak The Truth, first, and then of course the mechanical stuff, sailing, weather patterns, Navigation by Hand, etc. And to Rely on ONLY Himself as he gets Old Enough. He will have a Tremendous Advantage with you and Elayna ALONE, because you will relate to him as merely a Small Adult, so he'll Bypass most of the Dumb Kid Stuff. He'll learn to talk WELL early, because you won't talking 'Baby Talk' to him. And he WON'T learn to Cuss. He'll have his Boat Chores, so he'll grow up not being TERRIFIED to DO THINGS, especially Ones that NEED to be Done. Responsible, in other words. And you won't BELIEVE the Shit you'll Teach him just by letting him Watch YOU Do it. Oh, and be CAREFUL what you say, because Kids have Reverse Listening. When you think they're Listening to you, they Are NOT. Likewise, when you're CERTAIN they're Ignoring You, they are Soaking Up Every PARTICLE. NEVER forget this. My daughter Blows My MIND all the time with stuff I taught her when she was little I was SURE she never heard...

Speaking as a Mom who home schooled her 3 kids (all adults now) - life on board will be a wealth of REAL life lessons for your wee one!! I didn't use a set curriculum, I just taught them the basic reading, writing & arithmetic and other teachers along the way taught them the rest. "Education" happens all the time. Where I live I meet tons of cruisers that include families with kids. 99% of the time those kids are the most level headed, the best at interacting with ALL ages and always eager to learn more. I am excited for you!

Greetings from Auckland. Homeschooling works, Riley. I helped my 5 through, after realizing how lame the current 'standard education' is. Commitment and common sense are needed, but you could hardly do better than to educate your kids yourself. It's a privilege. Marine engineering for Lennon one day? Who knows what special insight he will have when he's an adult.

One aspect of the little man's education is the issue of social interaction with other kids. I'm curious to hear how you approach that important feature of childhood.

Sailing La Vagabonde - 5 years ago

Yeah agreed. We've spoken a little about this in the past.

Nicholas Bigney - 5 years ago

Homeschooling...we did that with uniformly great results, professionally, anyhow. Our kids-who-are-now-standouts are split on the idea. Some hated it and resented it, and some are happy to have been raised with few conventions (Google Cat Bigney, on "The Great Human Race" on Nat Geo channel. She was also just on Discovery in Europe-made a sailboat out of beach trash.) Without exception, all of them are very successful humans...but be aware that when they get to be teens, then is the time to let them find more of their own path. BTW, All the best you both with your little man.

BSKeeble - 5 years ago

So Riley let me get this straight you are taking advice from a guy who included Alabama as an uneducated place to live. I have 5 kids and all of them are very smart and very successful. All educated in Alabama. My Granddaughter just took the ACT for the first time as a 10th grader and scored a 28 with no practice and no one is buying off coaches and college administrators. She will get to go to any college she wants by the time she graduates High School. I would look for advice from people that know what they are talking about. That's advice from someone who has lived here my entire life was educated here and have done alright by the Grace of God. BTW I like sailing and own a sailboat right here in central Alabama that's why I watch your videos. I hope to continue but comments like that will make me move on. That's the same kind of arrogance that causes problems all over the world.

Sailing La Vagabonde - 5 years ago

BSKeeble you’ll have to read the book. He is absolutely not at all setting up a 15 yo for prejudice against any place. He is talking about technology moving so fast that education anywhere not being able to keep up.

BSKeeble - 5 years ago

+Sailing La Vagabonde My point is not to give a 15 year old advice that automatically sets him or her up for prejudices against any place that may be a wonderful place. I travel all over the US from New Hampshire to Miami to California and all places in between. I meet a lot of people from many different educational backgrounds. It's not what your education is but what you do with it. Good guidance comes from people that care about you and steer you in the right direction, someone who will help you navigate the world. Kinda like what you do with La Vagabonde. You just put out a video about dodging reefs you gently steered your boat around danger. Kids are the same way.

Sailing La Vagabonde - 5 years ago

You are seeing offence where there is none. Yuval said it was advice for young people in an outdated school and clearly picked three places from three very different countries and cultures around the world. Just pretend he said california (because he easily could have) and see if you have the same emotional response.

I was actually homeschooled until grade 10 when I jumped into community college. My parents wanted us kids to be as well rounded individuals as possible. My mum basically taught us how to teach ourselves. Look up The Robinson Curriculum if you’re interested. And in our area we were able to go to the public school for sports so we were always around other kids. It was a win win

And in regards to your child's education, in a traditional sense where a child goes to school it takes alot of attention from the parents to teach their kids about work ethic . She is 16 has a part time which she was promoted to supervisor in under a year. She is a honor roll student and focused on being a doctor. I drive a forklift and her mom's a hairstylist . Parental support is key. Plus the kids joining the workforce today are pathetic. If you show your son how to do all the things you do he will make all those other kids look pathetic!

When it comes to school what is missing in most schools is life skills.Like how to handle financial matters and look after yourself , in public schools individual attention from teachers ,the classes are to large and you are trained to comply and follow the herd.

As someone who is currently in the modern education system the one thing I can recommend is that when the time comes, USE THE ONLINE STUFF. Books are good and books contain information that is laid out in a cohesive way, but the volume of information on all manner of subjects is ludacris on the internet. Worksheets, tutors, libraries, anything can be found online. Personally things like Khan Academy have helped me tremendously, but I don't know what the landscape will be like when Lenny is ready. Just look for it and I know that the little man will receive a world class schooling experience from the high seas.

I do project based learning in school. I am given my work every Monday with the goal of getting all of my work done on Thursday so I don't have to go to school on Friday's. That could maybe work as a good home school system for Lenny when he gets older

00:54 Riley, with you being an Aussie, I would have thought that of all people you would have known that the best deterrent for flies, with that sort of hat would be to have some corks hanging via a bit of string, around the brim?! :'D

Twinkl has got some amazing resources for teaching!
https://www.twinkl.co.uk/

Also some great Apps that can be downloaded on tables/phones like Bee Bot (for when he's a bit older and ScratchJR. Both these things will help learning about Algorithms.

At a later stage you might want to look at getting one of these, they're waterproof an d a great source of Education

Greetings! We are in the U.S. and home schooled each of our boys for different reasons and in different circumstances. Older was home schooled for high school with an accredited school with workbooks to purchase. He now has a Masters Degree. Younger son was home schooled in earlier years, attended traditional school, then a blended charter school for high school. This included half class time and half online. He is still figuring out the next step, but our plan is to work a partial year, and spend several months of the year traveling before I am too old! With research, I am confident you and Elayna will find the best situation for Lenny. It is individual and I do not believe all must travel the same path with no choice or options. There is also something to be said for practical life skills which are gained outside of classrooms. Safe travels!
