In Texas, we are blessed by a law that says parents do have to answer to school district thugs - we can home school if we wish and the local "independent school district" cannot ask a thing. We have to certify to the state, if asked, that we have a structured curriculum covering 4 basic food groups :-)
My wife and I home schooled our kids for several years and then let them loose on the public schools. They are now grown and well adjusted, with a firm foundation of God's Truth and an understanding of this country's history.
The Republic of Texas - it's like a whole 'nuther country!

True, and a fine place it is. But y'alls gun laws are in need of improvement ;-)
Texas A & M wants to admit homeschoolers. We were told by the lady in admissions when we were looking that they loved to get homeschoolers because they were generally well behaved and scholastically superior. We thought we were going to run into a brick wall, but it was just the opposite.
