RE: Alternative Parenting and Captain Fantastic

I think you're right. It's a way extreme example to be sure. However, I feel like it is taking a little more of a shot at preppers specifically, as opposed to all homeschoolers. Like I said, though, I do hate that whole premise of us having to prove it's a valid option by showing our kids are smarter. For me that's totally beside the point. Freedom and separation from toxic mainstream culture and learning to be responsible and guide your own way are the main points for me. It would be nice, though, if there was a portrayal of homeschooling as it really is with kids interacting with lots of people of all ages all the time.
