Democrats aren’t going to allow that to happen

They find a way to force kids into these schools by denying accreditation to a homeschooling child that seeks a college degree or even future employment

There are zillions of colleges that accept HS students TODAY.

In NJ - not exactly a basket of Deplorables - there is very minimal state intervention in homeschooling. About 15 years ago, a few Dem politicians tried to weaponize a child abuse tragedy into heavy regulation of homeschooling. The families of homeschoolers launched a virtual Shock & Awe on the legislature and they backed off. Then State Sen. Loretta Weinberg tried it again and got destroyed: “a small group of homeschooling parents began following Weinberg around the capitol. The barrage of phone calls from homeschooling advocates so jammed her office phone lines that staffers had to use their private cell phones to conduct business. “You would have thought I’d recommended the end of the world as we know it,” Weinberg says. “Our office was besieged.”

The Homeschoolers may rival the NRA in stopping power.

Accreditation probably matters for Doctors and lawyers but for technology no one cares. I suspect tech is t the only sector that doesn’t care

Germany has banned homeschooling since 1919.

What they do is deny the child access to extra-curricula activities like sports and band at public schools, even though the parents are still paying taxes for the schools. Some states allow it, but many do not.

Denying accreditation is one thing, denying the reality of the achievements of those home educated is another thing all together.

With millions of homeschool graduates having gone through colleges already, and most very successfully, that’s a difficult task for the rats to accomplish. Since they are lazy and useless individuals, they won’t do the hard work necessary to succeed in that goal, although they will try.

They are going to do considerably more than that. CA is seriously legally harassing and attacking homeschoolers.

They are not “public” schools, they are GOVERNMENT schools. Your children are being “educated” by the collective.
