They have been divorced 10 years. The mom has been homeschooling her daughter the whole time. The mom won the previous court battle three years ago. The “guardian” thought that because the daughter has been raised as Christian, that justified taking the daughter away, so she could learn the godless way of the government schools.

The mom should appeal and stall until it is moot. I say this not because I am Christian, but because homeschooling is almost always better than going to a government school. Note that the daughter was attacked for defending her religion by our court system.

not enough information here.

quite frankly the level of incompetence in reporting of legal matters is staggering.

The fact remains, this is a divorce case. There is no reporting on what has happened in those three years. Nor does the story detail the demeanor of the mother or the father.

Imagine if this was a religion and divorce case and, as is the norm in nast divorces, the two different religion parents suddenly find their “god” and “remember” the agreement to raise the child one specific way.

This is not a homeshooling cause case. A proper test case is an intact normal family where the court orders public school.
