The article basically covered the essentials but the show fleshed out the human experience side of things a bit more. It was great to hear what the kids had to say about it all. Can recommend.
Just finished watching it. It was good. It makes me happy to see that the kids featured all seem to be on a positive path though.
I had a laughing (and almost crying) fit when one of the kids described school as a zoo. That's pretty much how I'd describe both primary school and high school, too
That zoo comment resonated with the elder minipeeler as well; he finds it's an overwhelming cacophony, even in class, and at recess and lunch it's even worse.
