It's pretty well known that your rights aren't fully realized when you're a minor. For example, the right to vote is applicable only to those over 18; the right to keep and bear arms is similarly controlled.

What do you think about government control over home schooling? Not trying to be argumentative but just trying to better reconcile the issues here.

The extent of governmental control over education should be providing one at taxpayer expense if, and only if it's not being adequately provided by the parents. Testing to ensure a complete education is the most the govt. should ever get involved.

Once they NEA is able to declare that failing to teach homosexuality and the theory of macroevolution constitutes inadequate education, then we'll have to start firing some public officials for sure.
