Oh yes, as someone who's tutored little kids in reading, this is very accurate! And, also, pretty damn adorable. :)

@Velociactor I think there are multiple factors involved in his interpretation of Leaf. Being a pre-school teacher, actor & someone who was home-schooled from 1st grade through high school myself, I assure you his performance is remarkable accurate! There are children with personality quirks, short attention spans, & excessive amounts of energy & all of these things can be magnified by being home-schooled. Due, in some cases, to a lack of social interaction outside your home life (i.e. Siblings)

Still my absolute favorite Leaf. Was able to see him with the original cast! Freaking hilarious!

@Velociactor Not only did he originate the role, but he helped CONCEPTUALIZE it with the creators. I like it, I've personally met a number of kids who are just as spacey and out there as JTF's Leaf.

dude..... ITS SUPPOSED TO SEEM LIKE THAT!!!!!!!

[Velociactor]

I really don't like how he does Leaf. Even if he originated the role. To me, when he does Leaf, Leaf seems mentally retarded.

[JWeb4U]

@Velociactor So? I think that could be an interpretation of the character. There is nothing in the script that says Leaf is or isn't mentally handicapped. It's reality- some kids are autistic/mentally handicapped so maybe that is the direction he took it in. It just depends on the actor and the way you want interpret the role.

@Velociactor You can't really say that seeing as he is the person who made the character so if people are doing it different then they are doing it wrong.
