Sooooo... It's the government's job to poke its nose into people's homes? Are you REALLY saying that, here, in this forum? You're ACTUALLY saying that the government has an authority to help parents bring up their children?
"It takes a village"? Hillary, is that you?
Under your logic, you wouldn't mind letting the police check out your house, y'know, just in case you have some crack or meth hanging around? Or maybe you'd just accept weekly drug testing (standardized, of course) just in case you're using something illegal? If you're not guilty, then of course you have nothing to fear. :(
Innocent until proven guilty, kid. Read up on it. Be careful what freedoms you allow to be taken from you, more may vanish with them.
Beyond any dire and melodramatic rantings by me, however, the point is moot, given the actual nature of the situation. The numbers show a better general educational result for homeschool kids than public schooled typically, so any assumptions of abuse by denial of education are at odds with the facts.
