Home Schooling "Addam's Family" (Adam's Family Song)

A homeschooling friend of mine sent me a link to this hillarious Addam's Family "Homeschool Family" song. It's worth your time to watch! It has a "Weird Al"-esk feeling. Gave me a big laugh over the hillarious stereotypes surrounding homeschooling families. I like the line where it says, "we never leave our dwelling"-- and "we make our computers." (I wonder what the Dugger Family thinks of this video? They strike me as a family with a sense of humor too, so I bet they laughed!)

I just found out that the video was done by a comedian named Tim Hawkins (I've never heard of the guy before, so don't consider this an endorsement of his comedy -- if you want good clean comedy... the kind that will make you bust your spleen laughing, check out Darren Streblow). Anyway, Tim plays the dad in the video, very well. Apparently, in real life, he's a homeschool dad of four. I watched a couple of the other things on his YouTube Channel but didn't find anything else worth mentioning. From what I looked through so far, this "Homeschool Family" video is his funniest by far.
