The PBS program on homeschooling that was filmed in December is now being broadcast on PBS stations around the country. The link below will give you the program via streaming video.
Even though our responses were heavily edited, and despite PBS's reflexive liberalism, the program overall is mildly positive. In particular, the film footage of homeschooled children is quite helpful.

Please circulate this link and encourage others to do so.
