Yes: This has nothing to do with the childs education , its all about School Boards losing power and money.

I've thought for a while that the homeschoolers here in NJ are on borrowed time; we've been miraculously under the radar for too long, considering the political makeup of this state.
I don't have a problem with standardized testing either - my husband and I intend to have them administered to our kids when age appropriate. But requiring state assessment tests requires ME to teach them what the state assesses to be necessary, thereby defeating the whole purpose of homeschooling.
And the medical exam requirement - what is THAT about, if not blatant control? If my child is in no way affiliated with the school system, it is NONE of their business if she has an annual exam. They might as well make it a requirement for residency, for all the relevance it would have.
