OMG

The subordination to the "state" is so evident. We must listen to the "officer of the state" and since a committee made a decision it must be a good.

Give me a break.

"and here teachers are officers that stand under an oath inding them to our constitution"

In Germany, the education system is full of left liberal progressive types, just like in the US. They are for the most part secularists and liberals.

"The access to the job of a teacher is only graned if you are able to prove that you are not an extremist. " lol

Suuuuuure. And they give their kids a day off from school so they can protest against the Iraq war. The education system is typically full of liberals. This is the same in the US or Germany. The difference is that in the US at least 'some' believe that an individual has rights, which also includes to remove ones kids from an education system that one does not agree with.

Fact is: The German government ARGUED that homeschooling should be allowed to be banned for the exact reason which you earlier stated (In a round about way to avoid the real term that is usually used for such practices): Indoctrination.

yawn... tell me news.

it's a normal thing for teachers to be a bit more on the left side. If a society can't counter that and convince a good percentage of grown ups otherwise - it would be poor.

I'm living in a democracy - I don't need to school my children in the cellar and protect them from people that don't share my favorite ideology - a little bit more self esteem please !

Do we really need to protect our children from multplie attitudes and lifestyles - do you really want to live in a dictatorship ?
