Sounds like teachers' unions in Germany are even stronger than ours are here.

seek asylum in America"

Good reason why we need to keep homeschool friendly Presidents and AGs so that they have at least a bit of control over the INS definitions of asylum for religious persecution

Plett was placed under arrest. The officers followed her into the bedroom where she was permitted to change her clothes. Before being taken to nearby Gelsenkirchen prison, she was permitted to contact her husband, who had fled the country the day before with their 12 children. "

Good grief, the "offenders" were not even in the country. So you would think that the state at some point would concede that if they were not within their jurisdiction, then the state interest would start to wane?

A glimpse of what awaits us here in America.

[trisham]

The law says that parents who “continually or obstinately prevent their children from fulfilling the compulsory school attendance” be slapped with stiff fines or prison terms up to six months.

I wonder if they've considered the fact that this will simply leave them with less Christian families? Much of Europe seems concerned with Muslim influence, yet this flies in the face of those concerns.

[Always Right]

It makes sense that NAZI's can't allow for parents to teach their children. Children must be indoctronated according to the guidelines established by the state. It is hard to impliment national socialism without proper indoctronation.

[east1234]

Vee have vays to indoctrinate your children.

[GrandEagle]

Please, Let them come here and Homeschool!
Of course they waould have to learn Spanish - English is opitonal.

[Obie Wan]

Remember this,elections are 17 days away and about half your neighbors are going to the polls to cast a vote for politicians who would gladly pass laws empowering goverment here in the USA to pull the same kind of violation of civil rights that was done in Paderborn, Germany.Vote GOP it's the only chance you've got to hold onto those rights !!!

[Señor Zorro]

This is what Hillary and the liberals as a group want here.

[Cymbaline]

Homeschooling, along with any educational institution other than state-run schools, was outlawed by Adolf Hitler in 1938.

WTF?

The human rights court ruled: “Parents may not refuse the right to education of a child on the basis of their convictions,” adding that the right to education “by its very nature calls for regulation by the state.”

The ACLU would love it there.

My wife works with a number of home schooled children every day. She said a number of them are very bright, sociable and very well behaved children. However...there are a number of them that cannot do the even the simplest math problems for their age and they have some serious social issues.

It seems when home schooling works, at least in this state, it works very well. But when it doesn't, the child seems really "left behind". I am not sure if there are standards set as to what the child must know and be tested on, but it doesn't seem to exist here.

One message here is that the Germans of all people have more civilized cops than we do. No 2:00AM forced entry, no black terrorist garb, no submachineguns, and they even hit the right house on the first try!

[Maeve]

It is a freaking Nazi law still on their books!

It is a no brainer that this law must go. Nazi legacies live on in the most bizarre way and they always target Christian and Jewish people of faith.

[kittymyrib]

Germans should have learned a lesson when their government, headed by Hitler, turned their children into Nazi Brownshirts.
But their control-freak nature just can't abide the thought of freedom. They worship government regulation and punish the individualism these parents exhibit, and that's why Germany is dying.

'The human rights court ruled: “Parents may not refuse the right to education of a child on the basis of their convictions,” adding that the right to education “by its very nature calls for regulation by the state.”'

Oh great now the Libs on our SC will use this ruling as precedence
