House rules for the cool moms' table

Last updated September 2026

No judgment. Ever.

Unschoolers, classical moms, eclectic moms, working moms, one-kid moms, six-kid moms. We don't rank homeschool styles here and we don't do "you should really be…".

Protect the kids — yours and everyone's

No full names, schools, addresses, routines or location-tagged photos of children. Share the win, not the identifying details.

Be a person, not a pitch

Recommending a curriculum you love is great. Repeat self-promotion, affiliate spam, MLM recruiting and cold DMs are not.

Off the table

Harassment, hate, threats, doxxing, adult content, medical or legal advice presented as fact, and reposting someone's private words outside the group.

Meetups and co-ops

Events posted here are organised by members, not by Cool Mom Collective. We don't vet hosts or run background checks. Meet in public first, bring another adult, and use your judgment — you know your family best.

Something's wrong?

Message us through the support page with a link or description and we'll look at it. We can remove posts and close accounts. You can delete your own posts and comments any time.
