He was home schooled because of what was happening in the public school he was in. The mother was trying to save him from it . The damage had already been done. Any "damage" done by schooling was dwarfed by whatever deficiencies he had from birth, IMO. Look at a picture and tell me you can't clearly see that.

>Why does the state feel they have to do this?<
Because they're liberals.
No matter how much power liberals have, it's never enough.

Gee, I wonder if they are democrats? Probably. The public school system failed Lanza big time. So now they're trying to blame their own failure on his mother who attempted to save him. They're trying to point the finger away from themselves.
I couldn't believe the public school funerally they had for the bus driver that got shot last week. My gosh, they even used the school colors at his funeral. I was waiting to see cheer leaders and a marching band!
The guy was a man with a life, but the whole disgraceful thing was all about the friggen school! They used the poor mans body like their new school mascot!

I would be putting an amendment on that bill that would mandate that all elected officials in the state be subject to the same criteria.
Bad idea. Guess which legislators wold come out on the short end. Good guys like Joe Markley.
The lunatics truly are running the asylum.

Yes, and as lunatics frequently do, they point the finger of blame for their illness at everyone and everything except themselves.

If the public school students were given a behavioral test WE defined they’d all fail ;)

UH, hate to tell you this, but it is usually the family that makes these decisions. Did it ever occur to you that maybe, just maybe it was the desire of the family and not some nefarious deed?

They should be asking ALL parents, not just homeschoolers to contact members of the committee. This is just so totally wrong. I was going to SARCASTICALLY suggest that they test all children, but you know that there is some whacka doodle that will think that is a great idea and expand the legislation.

. Did it ever occur to you that maybe, just maybe it was the desire of the family and not some nefarious deed?Nope. In their grief, I'm sure they agreed to do what ever the school wanted to do. Think "rail roaded."
I believe later they'll look back an see the coldness of it all. They'll remember that he was a man - not a piece of broken school furniture, and then they'll mourn his death as they should.
To: verga
That why I said what I said in my first post. Of course the haters will just blow that off and claim we deserve it because, well just because they say so and are our betters.

t's not just Home schoolers. It's for all kids in public school too!
However, it seems that private school children are NOT included...

And of course you have compelling evidence that proves this beyond the shadow of a doubt. Otherwise you would just be bearing false witness.

HOMESCHOOL PING
This ping list is for articles of interest to homeschoolers. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping List. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added or removed from either list, or both.
The keyword for the FREE REPUBLIC HOMESCHOOLERS FORUM is frhf.
I'll try this again.....
This is a Connecticut issue it seems but
Remember HR6 !!!!
.
This can be stopped just like HR6 was and if it isn't I can see other states following suit. This is probably going to be needed to be fought on almost every state level, if not the national level eventually.

How about if we do a behavioral health assessment of all public school teachers and other government workers, first? Followed up with assessments for all the busybodies who want to “assess” our children in the first place?
