hmm, me thinks if that were to happen to me when my wife and I start homeschooling my daughter either 1 of 2 things will happen. 1) I will be dead. Shot by the "police" because I was defending my daughter from abduction and kidnapping. 2) I will be in jail for killing the "police" because they were abducting/kidnapping my daughter. Somehow, I know my wife would be by my side through it all too. Ryan
HSLDA (home school legal defense association) has alerted us about this in the past. They keep watchers abreast of what's going on in the HS arena, worldwide. If you're a home-schooler (and even if you're not), you might check out their site. www.hslda.org
We homeschooled for 8 years, and it has some challenges. We had some push back from the school district, because if your children are not enrolled, then they are not allocated all of the available tax dollars here. If you are homeschooling or thinking about it, check on the laws for your state, and join HSLDA. If you are confronted legally, they will protect you if you have enrolled previously, and not waited until you are already in trouble. It is kind of like prepaid legal in that way. However they are specialists, and very good in protecting the families they represent.
