But the CDE also bases its argument on the fact that home-schooling is not mentioned in the law.

That is it in a nutshell.

Their default position is that the state owns the children. This is a common thought in all totalitarian schemes.

Though I live in Tennessee, I have given money to the California Homeschoolers in a previous battle. This is important enough for me to do it again.

This may end up with another trip through the federal courts. (Scary thought, that.)

It may also be the beginning of a massive resistance to the insatiable lust for power drives the statists.

Don-o, I don't know how you get money to California homeschoolers, but I continue to send $100 annually to HSLDA--even though I've been out of the biz for four years.

HSLDA is the org with the biggest guns and most influence; they'll be at the frontline in this battle: a great place to send support!

Righto.

The two greatest threats to the NEA's socialist monopoly are Homeschooling & Vouchers.

Expect them to "fight to the death" on both issues!
