This is a great victory. In 1980, home-schooling was illegal or very restricted in all states. Under 30,000 kids were home schooled. Today, it is legal in every state.

Even after the successes of homeschooling, the National Education Association still continues to raise the issue of socialization. You would think, by now, we would be past this fundamental issue. Yet, homeschooling is not just about results, test scores and the future business success of a student, but the time spent the way it should be with families living their daytime hours together.Amen! Socialization as an argument is such a joke. You mean my five year old misses out on a really good opportunity to grow an attitude? Oh what a shame. And there are so many homeschool group activities that it's a wonder anyone considers this a valid concern at all anymore.
