Even in the deep south

Quote:On February 13, 2012, Representative Bob Evans (District 91) filed a bill in the Mississippi Legislature that would require parents to obtain permission from a judge to homeschool their children. House Bill 464 would impose a duty on school attendance officers to collect and maintain unspecified and unlimited information on all children being homeschooled and to report this information to the judge of the youth court or chancery court.

Good. We already have too many morons homeschooling their kids(right Torchy?). We need to make sure they are capable of doing so.

This kind of stuff is not new but it is starting to happen more and more in this country. Not surprised that those pushing it are dems. They never miss an opportunity to try to control somebody else's lives and in this case, protect a failing public school system and their political parties' gravy train from the NEA.

Germany has been persecuting home schoolers for a long, long time and even throwing parents in jail and seizing the children, placing them in care of the state. Their rationale? To prevent a "parallel society" developing that might challenge the rule of the state. I kid you not.

As for your comment, Rob.......every time you write something on here you devalue that education that you supposedly got at NIU.

Liberty means nothing to you does it?

I know. That logic terrifies me.
