Bravo! You are absolutely correct. This is a matter of parental rights. No nation should put themselves in a position to assume the right of parents to raise their own children.

By the way, I see you're from Canada. I know that homeschooling or home based education is legal in all of the provinces, but are there any restrictions that you know of?

I did find a website that says:

Home based learning, or "home school," as it is often referred to in the regulations, is legal in all Canadian provinces and territories. It comes under provincial jurisdiction and each province has its own Education Act and Regulations. To find out more about regulations in your own province, follow the links to the relevant provincial section of this website and, from there, to the page on Legalities.

One of the things that I like about ATS is the opportunity to talk to citizens of other countries, and learn more about their country and people. Anything that you could relay, would, I'm sure be much appreciated by us. Thank you in advance.

The following quote is from the decision of the Supreme Court in this case:




The fundamental theory of liberty upon which all governments in this Union repose excludes any general power of the state to standardize its children by forcing them to accept instruction from public teachers only. The child is not the mere creature of the state; those who nurture him and direct his destiny have the right, coupled with the high duty, to recognize and prepare him for additional obligations.

Important UPDATE for those interested in this issue:

www.californiahomeschool.net...


California Assemblyman Joel Anderson is introducing a concurrent resolution in the Assembly.
He is calling on the California Supreme Court to reverse the recent court decision that could make
homeschooling illegal.
This will happen fast, since it's a resolution and not a bill. All California homeschoolers are
encouraged to contact their legislators and ask them to support homeschoolers by voting yes on
Joel Anderson's ACR supporting homeschooling. We expect there will be a powerful statement
made as California homeschoolers respond.
As information develops, it will be placed on CHN's legal updates page,

I am so pleased that you read my post and agree with it. It is a matter of freedom - and responsibility.


By the way, I see you're from Canada. I know that homeschooling or home based education is legal in all of the provinces, but are there any restrictions that you know of?


Sorry, I really don't know. I have no children and don't plan on having any. Nor was I homeschooled myself. My interest in (and defense of) homeschooling has a somewhat unusual motivation.

Well, whatever your motivation, welcome to the cause. We need everyone to stand up for freedom and rights. Too much is being taken away from citizens. Government was supposed to be for the people, of the people, and by the people. It certainly doesn't seem that way any more.
