I just had to share this...The reporters here really sound like they don't have a clue...which is to be expected I suppose.
BUT I also think that they chose a family that doesn't quite represent the unschooling community either. The children...er...huhm..teenagers seemed a little less than success stories...
What do you think?

You should try to get ahold of someone to interview your family. You're right, this family didn't do a good job in representing the un-school community. But, you do realize that if that particular station has feelings about un-schooling, they would pick a family like that just to paint a bad picture.
