The reason why homeschoolers are concerned is that we don’t want anything with strings on it. No one told Abe Lincoln’s mother he could only read state-approved books for his education. If there are vouchers they will be forced to be used on approved whatever, classes, curricula... homeschoolers tend to want absolute freedom to choose how they educate their kids. And I agree. (I only homeschool 2 classes for one middle schooler because he is at a hybrid school)
Thanks Yaelle. I get it now.
I wouldn’t want any strings either...I am hopeful that there aren’t any. If there are, I’m sure many homeschoolers will forego them and have to pay twice like they are now.
It was someone here on FR that made me realize we homeschoolers should not want any return on our property taxes, because there will ALWAYS be strings attached. Now I try to think of the property taxes as protection money, to keep them out of our hair. Sounds like this bill might change that balance.
