It is easier than many people think, particularly for younger children. Even if you only homeschool for a few years your children will benefit. And if you can't homeschool full time, at least supplement what your children learn at school with additional teaching at home.
Also, there are many support groups to help families get started.
True, but it’s difficult financially. And both spouses must agree. Government school is the default position.
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.
How can they be dis-allowed from emigrating to another country when they don’t have border stops in the EU anymore requiring you to show a passport?
I did just a wee bit of research and found out that Austria (right next door to Germany for those of you in Rio Linda) allows homeschooling as long as the home education standards are on par or better than the government indoctrination standards.

What is to prevent them from taking a drive to Austria? Maybe they can do it after their court case in December.
Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Normay et al allow it without much regulation, too.
Maybe some Christians can get together and smuggle them out.
Let's call those "options" what they **really** are: Ransom! or Jizya!
Parents who can not afford the ransom ( homeschool expenses or private school tuition) are under POLICE THREAT to send their children into the government Marxist run indoctrination camps. If you don't believe me do a Google search on the words, "Police and truant".
Also, our nation's Marxist run indoctrination camps are like Obamacare's , "You can keep your insurance plan and your doctor." Government K-12 indoctrination camps are a price-fixed monopoly cartel that gives a service away for tuition-free. Due to the cartel and price-fixed practices of the K-12 Marxist indoctrination camps few private schools can compete. In many counties ( my is one) there are NO private schools. None!
Finally, no citizen should be under police threat to subsidize MARXIST driven godless socialism that is the very foundation upon which government K-12 indoctrination camp "schooling" is built! The entire EVIL system is a First Amendment and freedom of conscience ABOMINATION!
I checked you posting history to see if you might be a paid government school defending troll, but you don’t seem to be. Your posts are solidly conservative.
Honestly, I am exasperated.
Education is our nation’s MOST serious threat! Nearly every K-12 teacher in this nation was trained by godless Marxists in Marxist run colleges and universities. This is true for both private and government schooling. Even if a teacher is conservative in their worldview this Marxist training will have its influence. Then when K-12 is done the indoctrination continues on to the highest levels of university graduate school!
Your post is merely one example among thousands upon thousands of the lack of understanding among conservatives about the threat education will pose to our nation ( by way of the voting booth) in just a few short years.
Well, if anything, those children will test out at least two grades higher than their peers and will be much more self confident.

Right.
And, unless they’re placed at grade levels well beyond their ages, they will spend all day, every day bored out of their minds.
Poor things.
Yep.
