This film was just a brilliant piss take of the way society portrays homeschooled kids. It took the fairly stereotypical notion that homeschooled kids are socially awkward and don't know anything worldly and life is always a 'teachable moment' and ran with it. It was OTT and hysterical. In fact all the characters were great. His mom was cringingly, shockingly and funnily overstepping boundaries all over the place. You could still see and feel the underlying love and connection though. His principal was OTT inappropriate and I loved his no filter but it fitted with the obvious satire of the whole film and I just found it funnier and more ludicrous.
The more she tried to 'teach' him the crazier it became, from blazing up in the school car park of all places, leaving him with a condom in the dark and timing him, to taking him to some random party to experience college parties.
The whole film was just great and funny and ridiculous!!
Thoroughly enjoyable and not an accurate depiction of homeschooling at all. Reminded me of Wanderlust a bit with its piss take of hippies!!
