Growing Up in Community: Why One Woman Came Back.
Nielsen, Ellen
Journal of Family Life: A Quarterly for Empowering Families, v5 n2 p28-31 1999
An interview with a mother and daughter living in an intentional community in New Hampshire explores how their choices about lifestyle have shaped them, how homeschooling worked for them, the role of other community adults in raising children, why the daughter left and later returned, and how community is more than proximity to other people.
