The one-liner
A paid parenting community where parents of seven children share what they do and why it works.
What they actually sell
Raising Extraordinary Children, run by Douglas McClure, lives on Skool. Its public pitch: "Most parenting advice tells you to relax." The paid door is Standard at $9 a month. Premium sits above that. Douglas and Sheena have seven children between them, homeschooled six and are documenting how they raise the seventh, Resilie, from birth. Standard is the community board, where families post what they are stuck on and the hosts join in as participants. Premium adds a Curriculum Archive of references, printables and tracking logs, a weekly 30-minute live call and a Master Class video roadmap released on a schedule. They state what they do not do: grade your child or promise outcomes. Inside sit 4 courses. A formal money-back promise is not spelled out on the about page.
Who pays and why
Parents who want concrete next steps for raising capable children, not more advice to relax. The frustration is parenting content that offers reassurance but no method or sources. They pay for a community board where the hosts take part, with a premium layer of archives and weekly live calls.
Where the members come from
Douglas McClure's LinkedIn and website presence appears to feed the room. The Skool community reads as the member back end for people already drawn to that work. Exact follower counts stay off the public page.
What's holding it back
The story is tied to one family and one child. If the hosts post less, the community loses its main reason to visit.
Steal this
Cite your sources and date your own work publicly, so trust comes from evidence rather than charisma.
Would this work in another niche?
Yes for other method-led topics such as homeschooling or family fitness. Weak for audiences who just want reassurance.

“Hi team, its pretty difficult to navigate. I purchased the 99$/month but i can find either the roadmap, archives or classes anywhere. There are only 2 intro videos of u saying hello. I wonder if there s a technical issue”
