I can't say I agree with you giving the state the right to come into MY family unit and take away my parenting rights.

Sure, it's been 'safe' for now --- but what long term studies have there been?

Fortunately, I've got a minimum of 5 years before I have to "opt-out" my oldest. (And, for now, unless something changes, I will).

If your child goes to government schools, you have already given those rights up. See the Palmdale decision....

I think we can count on something changing. At some point, you will no longer be allowed to opt out. Hopefully your kids will be out of school by then.
