California Rules On Home Schooling

On February 28th, three California appeals court Justices handed down an opinion that reads that Californian Parents do not have the Constitutional Right to Home School their children.
This contradicts a 1993 Michigan Surpreme Court ruling that stated that Americans DO have that Constitutional Right.

We need to fight this - to demand that California "De-Publishes" this ruling - "De-Certifies" this opinion.
Whether you're a Californian or parent, we all need to contact our Representatives and get them to fight for Americans both in and out of California.

Why the heck do some people twist the word liberal to make it an insult? The USA was founded on liberalism. Liberalism is the belief in liberty and equality, and it means you want to preserve the individual's rights.

How in the hell is that a bad thing?

@4me2cclearly - why the heck do some people twist the word Gay to make it sound like a bad thing? Liberalism is a belief that all things bad are good: homosexuality, abortion, religion, hate, racism, socialism, obama, etc etc etc.

You mean they want people that are certified in the subject in with they plan on teaching!?

HOW DARE THEY!!!

Next thing you know they will want you to take driving class from someone that actually has a license, as opposed to someone that has never driven a car!!

Strange, I always thought that the blind leading the blind approach always works best, for indoctrinating there children with there own parents ignorance.

[tyeporter]

@4me2cclearly - yeah because P.E. teachers teaching math and sex ed are certified!

They are given text books, curriculums and cheat sheets.

Parents know how to drive their own kids.

Parents use homeschool curriculum books which clearly outline, define and provide at least as good an education (in most cases a far better) than that provided at the liberal religious indoctrination camps.

@tyeporter

Can you define term, Liberal religion?

And in witch cases are far better then that of public school.

I have no problem with home schooling, as long is it is not used only because

the parent does not accept the facts of, lets say evolution.

Then that is clearly indoctrination. If you wish to teach creationism at home,

then let them hear both sides fairly. Not spun with your own personal beliefs.

There is a big difference between teach and indoctrinate.

[tyeporter]

@4me2cclearly - homeschoolers do teach creation & evolution. We teach the truth about both, not tainted with a religious bias which denies God, science and reality.

I agree that there is a huge difference between teaching and indoctrination, which is why teaching is done outside of the liberal religious indoctrination camps!

[mainestategop]

We should outlaw public school. That would be better.

[mainestategop]

They;re liberal because they want your children to be controlled by the state not by you. They don't want kids learning they just want to dumb them down to become loyal subjects.

[artistphilosopher]

The judges had no constitutional right to deny the right of free choice. The judge should be removed.

[4me2cclearly]

I think it's important for children to understand concepts of religion because, like it or not, it's part of our world. We should seek understanding, and part of understanding people is understanding various belief systems. There is a huge difference between teach and indoctrinate though. And I would actively DISCOURAGE getting into it with kids that aren't old enough to understand the difference. Their friends will eventually tell them Santa isn't real, they might not do the same for god.

[4me2cclearly]

Fair enough.

@4me2cclearly - If this law was meant to stop the ingorant brain washing of children by uneducated, religous extremists whose only intent is the indoctrination of our children with their own narrow view of the world, the law would be applied to "public education" system.
