Hehehehe!
You should have seen the fight I had on one of the Homeschooling discussion boards.
Someone came in with a petition to restrict smoking in all public places.
I told them that this is not something that the Homeschoolers should be involved with as we could easily be government regulated ourselves. The government needs to stay out of our private lives and if one doesn't like smoking, go to a non-smoking restaurant.
At first, people hollered, using all the old "I can't stand smoke" crap.
I keep pushing the personal freedom idea. That the government could come in and say that "Unschooling" is wrong or "Classical Homeschooling" needs more regulation. Each of these homeschooling families have personal freedoms and need to lay low. We are in MI, where homeschooling is easy. With government regulation, our lives could be he!!.
One Unschooler came in and understood. Then another, then a family that uses a Christian Curriculm, and like a bulb going off, it dawned on them that, Yes it could be us next.
The debate was shut down.
"Yes it could be us next."
What, a drive to stop homeschooling in public places?
WOW! What an awesome comparison.
It's heartening to know that there are people out there who can actually see the forest through the trees.
;) well done
