How many precedents does it take?

No, I would rather say that they take one ridicules case and blow it out of proportion. Then take that precedent to many other cases. Would you not agree that is the way the legal system works?

No, I wouldn't. Rationality prevails.

To borrow from the book title, sense and sensibility.

Default Re: No More Home School For Californians

There's at least two religious groups that have called for a mass exodus from public schools because of the passage of that SB 777 bill, the gender-equality bill that CA passed last fall.

It's illegal to homeschool in some countries, and not every parent can afford private schools.

And the most sickening are the rush limbaughs, sean hannitys and thier neo-Con followers who are pointing every which way trying to deflcet the responsability of thier leaders who all have sworn to protect the law.

Yes they will point at clinton well guess what he was wrong too annd should have paid

BUT that dont make this any lesser of an evil

Default Re: No More Home School For Californians

There are different ways to get an education and scores and grading don't really tell the success of one. My school is a progressive private school and the high schools our graduates go to always say that we know how to actually think but we don't have grades at all-no numbers or letters or any. No STAR testing or anything like that, we have tests and quizzes but nothing super stressful. I don't think SAT scores really are a good measure.

Homeschoolers' setback sends shock waves through state - evidently it is leaving its mark Michaelr.

A lesson learned in life, known from the dawn of time. Respect. Walk.

I tell you something, this is dangerous but what is worse is the denial by the people. It takes one single case to set a precedent, then the whole system changes and in this case for the worse. Here is an article that I ran from my friends at JBS. Maybe this will put things into perspective.

Making Government Indoctrination Compulsory

Thank you johnflesh!!
