Fight this one all the way to the Supreme Court! Education is optional in America, and it needs to stay that way. Enough of grabbing personal freedoms and taking them away from the people.
The whole California judiciary and legislative branches are so corrupt they now break all the constitutional liberties gauranteed by the 1st ten ammendments to the constitution and they mock God, country and all moral
American citizens. And the political system continues its steady march to marxism, the last to know they have been destroyed by their own liberalism will be the left, of course.
>> and they could develop emotionally in a broader world than the parents’ ‘cloistered’ setting,”
Better a cloistered environment than a coital’d one.
Well, now our children will be forced into socialist indoctrination centers.
The abuse just continues.
Do consenting, adult Californians have a Constitutional right to engage in heterosexual sex, not for pay? E.g. between husband and wife?
Get out. California’s not worth it.
The real kicker is that the argument they use is NOT that the children need to learn, but that the children should be required to have interaction outside the home.
Hey Rush and Hannity! Here’s something you can talk about for a change.
Don’t blame the judges for this one. After reviewing several threads concerning this issue, the people of California are ultimately to blame for their homeschooling fiasco, a consequence of the poor wording in California’s laws, in my opinion. More specifically, Californians are evidently not getting themselves sufficiently involved in their state’s legislative processes and lose canons in their code are consequently firing.
The government hates competition.
The masques are coming off the liberals in Kalifornia.
I have long thought that a Constitutional amendment should be put forward that enshrines the right of Parents to:
1) select the education system and method for their children
2) the right to determine the belief system that the child will be raised with
3) the right to determine the associations and friends the child will maintain or distance themselves from
4) the right to determine appropriate punishment for their children so long as such punishment does not cause physical injury requiring medical treatment
Wow, California is really experiencing a Red Spring this year.
California morphing into Communfornia.
When they came for the homeschoolers......
Any person or entity has the right to file a private school affidavit or statement in lieu. If you do not wish to file your own private school affidavit, you can enroll under someone else's, called an umbrella. There was absolutely no reason for these people to have gone through this unless they wanted to to make a point. All they did was make things worse for those of us who have actually read the code. Know the code. Follow the code. Stay out of trouble.
I predict a spike in U-Haul rentals in the near future. The teacher's unions have crafted the laws to ensure they don't have to compete with home schools. It's a job security effort. Time for dedicated home school families to move to a home school friendly state.
It’ll get tossed.
You can’t FORCE people to be wards of the state.
The sweeping February 29th ruling says that California law requires "persons between the ages of six and eighteen" to be in "public full-time day school," or a "private full-time day school" or "instructed by a tutor who holds a valid state teaching credential for the grade being taught".
Why do you suppose that the had to use four sets of quotes? Could it be because they are not accurately quoting the opinion?
Here’s what it really says
See the ruling at the link.
And, before you flame me, my argument is not about home schooling. It is about accurate reporting.
This was a state court...a federal appeal will overturn it quickly. Sounds like a judge in the pocket of the unions, again.
