The beauty of is all is that each famiy can choose what aspects are best for them.
There are many web site Play groups and support groups for AP families, some choose to include homeschooling and natrual living while others only choose a few aspects.
There are many resources on line if you wnat to know more, or if you have a specific question, I would be happy to try and answer it. I have raised 5 Children in the Ap stlye and I am enjoying watching my 2 young grandsons being raised in a similar fashion. I have lead may breastfeeding and Attachment paring groups through the years and have learned a lot form other AP families.
