Jason Craig talks with Shawn and Beth Dougherty, who bought the worst land in Ohio, spent years growing food on it, and now live in a house their own children built. They cover why college stopped looking like a necessary rite of passage, why a young couple should start out poor, and how a family takes back the work it has proxied out to industry. Weddings, funerals, food, and heat all come home in the process.
In This Episode, We Cover:
Why Sean taught theater for 25 years as a means to an end, and how the whole arrangement was aimed at land and summers with the kids
Why half their kids went to college and half didn't, and why neither path counted as a necessary rite of passage
What a marriage misses when it goes straight from daddy's castle to hubby's castle without a season of having nothing but each other
How the homeschool world became a matriarchy, and what happens when dad comes home and doesn't fit
Why the natural economy gives back more than you take, and how the cash economy inserts itself between a family and the Creator
