“>>>There will be civil war.

Already is. It’s just not a hot war. Yet.”

And yet the majority of parents...even conservatives...will place their own children into the care of these people under the “idea” that they are being educated.

If all of us that call ourselves Christian or conservative would remove our children from the public schools we could collapse the whole system...but we don’t. This is what confuses me...why not collapse the system?

Re-take the system via school boards, and state legislatures everywhere and do what Wisconsin did.

And the school board thing is a serious place to start - school boards approve contracts. And curriculums. The left has been incrementally taking over the state established school systems for 40+ years. And yeah, taking kids out of public schools is a good way to make a point... or get a state legislature to allow open enrollment, and give parents school choice in public schools.

I have 8 grandkids. The oldest will be 5 in June. Not one of my kids are sending them to government schools. They are looking at all the options, and government schools isn’t on their list. My kids are in their mid to late 20’s. More and more parents are opting out of the ‘norm’. The schools are dying. Good. Privatize the whole lot of them.

My eldest lives in Sheboygan.

There is a homeschooling network in the state that isn’t affiliated with any group. They’re not on the internet. The families pool their resources, take turns schooling different subjects, and is totally against the ‘law’. It’s completely by ‘invite’ only. They’re doing it anyway.
