Thanks for the ping. The other thread about this case had links showing that the family in question has a long history with the Department of Family & Childrens' Services, with allegations of abuse as well as sexual abuse of the little girls by a family friend who is still in the picture.

That said, it looks as though the court was worried about a lack of an external support system for these children in case of abuse, and has tarred all homeschoolers with the same brush.

It was pointed out to you on another thread, and I will reiterate again for you.

If abuse is the problem, then deal with the abuse.

This judge’s ruling was entirely directed at HOMESCHOOLING and this is completely inappropriate.
