The standaradized test that the Ultra-left school board would require the kids to take would cause them to flunk the test and thus showing in writing that the parents are unfit to teach their kids. The Ultra Liberal Public school system will pack their tests with PC questions, which of course home schooled children would answer "Incorrectly" in the view of the "Pubic Skoo Sistum".

Any good home school parent should teach their kids how to lie on such tests. Tests are not given under penalty of purjury. In the end, what is the higher value? Being right or effective?

The standardized tests in question are just that - stndardized tests. Meaning, the school can't mess with them. We are talking about tests such as the Stanford Achievement Test, Iowa Basic Skills Test, California Achievement Test, etc. We homeschool our children and have them take the Stanford test every year, so we can gauge our progress. Since I'm the one paying for the tests, I don't feel the need to share the results with the school system. It's not their business.

This is not about tests anymore. It's about who has the control over a child's education.
