I agree! It really made you think about cultural vs innate attributes...
I think they did a good job of showing how we can really stress ourselves out as western parents- trying to be sure our kids get educational toys & classes and we have every outlet covered and god forbid we miss a well-child visit. While there are children around the world who would be lucky to get a dr visit when they are ill!

Now, does that mean I think we SHOULD [let our babies chew on rocks or tie them to their beds?]] Of course not... but I think it helps to keep things in perspective.
Since I work with children (or have) from a variety of walks of life within the US, I think it would be just as interesting to do one with all US families from different cultural/socioeconomic backgrounds.
Anyhow- they did all this and presented lots of topics for debate, while still making it fun to watch. I didn't come across as having any agenda whatsoever...
