So, her neighbor is spying on her, I bet she is against homeschooling.
Yes, America has its priorities extremely screwed up. I was walking in downtown Chicago last week. Of course there are many homeless, many beggars. There was one man I saw, on Michigan Avenue, who was passed out (who knows, may have been dead already). He had very chalky skin, and disfiguring leg edema (swelling) and on one side, for the world to see, had an open, infected, seeping leg ulcer, the size of a large grapefruit.
America's government busybodies would leave a dying (or already dead) body on a busy street, but are sure to censure parents whose kid is walking a dog.
I was walking around the block unsupervised when I was three and a half years old. I walked to school on my own beginning in kindergarten. But this was in the days when my home state of California had a Republican governor and two Republican Senators, and both Los Angeles and San Francisco had Republican mayors. In other words, a different galaxy.
The pink police state. We have Gerald Ford (among others) to thank for this lunacy.

I think I’m glad to have grown up in the 70s...I took out my 15 foot boat with an 125 horsepower outboard on it, walked (or bike) to my school, played tackle football (no helmets) in the town’s park and took my motorcycle into the woods (or through a Kmart that was under construction). My stay at home mom told me (and my siblings) to be home when the streetlights comes on.
I immediately thought of a LGBT parade.....
And this is the world we now live in. It is also why I do not trust police officers anymore, even though I was brought up being told to implicitly to trust all of them. One never knows if the police officer you meet is the one to ‘investigate’ you over a nothing burger. We all know that in today’s world, the process is the punishment itself.

It is no wonder so many “mellennials” cannot negotiate life very well by themself as young adults, they were protected from negotiating life themselves as they were growing up - resulting in them not really growing up.
