Exactly!
Snipped from SpunkyHomeschool blog:
How do you make unschooling illegal? Do you write a statute into each state saying “unschooling” is illegal. Well what is unschooling? Is it those who don’t use textbooks but are guided by the family’s interests and the parents’ principles? Or is those who don’t use textbooks and the children select all the activities based on their interests alone? Or what if it’s a combination of the two would that be acceptable and legal? Who decides?
It’s a slippery slope, folks. Attempt to undermine the parents – even those wacky confident enough to take on radical unschooling – and who knows who is next. Maybe those wacky confident born again Christians who dare teach their children the Lord created man.
Watch this space. There’s more to come, I’m sure.
