Michigan Lawmakers Want Homeschooled Children Registered Like Dogs and Inspected by Social Workers

Let’s go back to why this politician even suggested this law, shall we? Because of this “MOTHER???” killed her children? is that correct? This “MOTHER”S???” only aim in life was to get as much money to support her “CRACK” addiction. That’s why she had all those babies. More babies, means more money. Instead of giving her all that money, why didn’t the government step in? The whole neighborhood knew that she was a “CRACK” addict, and the government didn’t??? If you really want to blame some body, blame the stupid government.

This bill is DEAD. Phil Pavlov's making sure it won't get passed the Senate

On the house side, I don't see this going anywhere. GOP controls the house and senate, and every single sponsor or cosponsor of this is a dem, with most of them being from Detroit.

Chang, Gay-Dagnogo, Garrett, Durhal, Santana - Detroit Democrats

Liberati, Geiss, Wittenberg, Greig, Miller, Yanez, - Democrats from Detroit suburbs.

Hoadley - Kalamazoo, Zemke - Ann Arbor - Democrats from college towns.

This probably isn't going anywhere in the house (and is not going to the Senate). The bill is in the House Education Committee right now. Amanda Price (R-Park Township) chair's the committee.

WHY?
When I’m seeing on the news that one or more children/week have been molested by teachers or other school employees in our “wonderful” public schools.
Not to mention the total B.S. they are taught.
If public schools are so great, why can’t they even protect, as you allude to, our kids from the school employees?

I once called CPS Re: a battering teacher and was told that they didn’t interfere with school discipline.
Yet they sure want to interfere with parental rights.
Then you mention vaccinations—not in MY family.

What would you suggest to protect two other children from going through a similar private hell with a deranged mother who is pretending to ‘home school’, when all she’s doing is holding them captive?

You are thinking like a liberal - see evil or deranged behavior by one person and take away everyone's freedom - even though the intrusion and loss of freedom really won't do any good or prevent the supposed problem.

Are you aware that many more children in the care and custody of state governments have ended up as victims of horrible crimes as a result of the failures of the government?

Have you noticed how its always an unavoidable problem when a child in the government school system is molested, or murdered, or dies of a drug overdose, or commits suicide due to the bullying that happened at the school, but if a crime happens outside of the school system, suddenly something must be done. And that something always involves taking away the rights of parents.

Of course you have also fallen for the language tricks of the anti-homeschoolers. Why would anyone characterize an evil, and probably insane person as a "homeschooler"? Is there any evidence that the perpetrator was actually home schooling her children? Even if she claimed she was, why should anyone else assign that identity to her? Why not some other term, like "Detroit mother" or "welfare fraudster". Only one reason - to besmirch the reputation of the many people who do homeschool.

The children have already been “registered” by being born and getting a birth certificate.

Like it or not, vaccinations etc are VOLUNTARY, and (pains me to momentarily side where I don’t stand) those who weigh the odds and decide not to have that option. Indeed, those who _don’t_ adhere to certain social standards are legally ostracized and left few options; in a nation founded on LIBERTY, coercion is not a valid option precisely because it threatens violence upon mundane dissent.

How to protect others? start by choosing a course of action which is NOT built upon a non-sequitur. If someone is deranged enough to abuse children in such a way, harassing many thousands of innocents just to close one small “cover” for abuse, while leaving a thousand other “covers” available, is absolutely asinine.
