Premise
editThe series was about the O'Keefe family: Harry and Ellie, together with their children, Lauren, Danny and Mark. The plot centered on the fact that the O'Keefe parents hadhomeschooledtheir children for most of their lives and with the dramatic and comic interest arising in situations where the children were beginning to experience the outside world.
There was a lot of controversy about this show among parents who homeschool their children, as they felt it portrayed homeschooling in a negative light.[1]
