Excellent. I recall having some gardening options myself many years ago. But it always had the feeling of being an extra subject and not one of the 'main' ones. Perhaps because it wasn't taught in a class room? Personally I feel as if growing our own food is one of the most important lessons we can learn.
gardening is a core part of the curriculum, they may even do it more than once a week, they also learn French which is basically useless here unless you visit Quebec, they have a whole library of French books for kids! He also gets lots of gardening experience at home. He is also very interested in hunting but he is so young I don't really want to take him but I also don't want to miss the opportunity since he is so excited now and maybe he won't want to when he is older, its a conundrum.
I am also concerned because I don't want him saying the wrong thing at school in these hypersensitive times. There is a lot to consider. The loss of innocence. I am also concerned about exposing him to ticks. I have put the decision on when he may go hunting on his mother.
I hadn't heard about this movie, is it good? I could check it out.
I read the synopsis and after watching the trailer I think it may not be for me but I can see why it might be right up your ally! I don't care for "heartwarming" films in general.
Have you ever heard of the series "Alaskan Bush People"? It's somewhat of the same idea except they live in Alaska and (spoiler alert) the mother recovers from cancer and it is a reality show instead of a dramatic production.

I would say go for it! Have you seen Captain Fantastic? The film opens with a great hunting scene... with all the family. Some of them very young.

Yeah, I can see there is lots to think about there..
Personally I thought the movie was beyond great! It really struck a chord with me.
