I’m Pouch Schooled!
This was one of the funniest lines in a movie we recently watched, Horton Hears a Who!. ” He’s Pouch schooled” was uttered by mama kangaroo about her baby.
While the term was cute- the characterization of the homeschool mom had no resemblance to any homeschool mom I have ever met! She over bearing, over protective and a know-it all that tried to squash free thinking not encourage it. Was a but weird and contradictory to me that they would portray this woman as a homeschooling. Seem more like an uptight spinster than the type of mom that would homeschool. Like the movie anyway but this little snippet BUGGED me!
Anyone else bothered by this?
