European Court Upholds Removal of Children From Home Schooling
Religion Clause ^ | 1/16/19 | Howard Friedman

In Wunderlich v. Germany, (ECHR, Jan. 10, 2019), the European Court of Human Rights in a Chamber Judgment upheld Germany's three-week removal of four children from their parents' home after the parents insisted on home schooling them and refused to send them to state schools. The court held that there was no violation of Art. 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights (Right to Respect for Private and Family Life). the Court said in part:

The Court finds that the enforcement of compulsory school attendance, to prevent social isolation of the applicants’ children and ensure their integration into society, was a relevant reason for justifying the partial withdrawal of parental authority.

You can take Christian children from their families

You cannot take children from human traffickers on the border

Nothing ever changes in Germany does it, just the face changes...

The Leader of the state inspecting state owned children.

Also never forget the whole "prussian model" of education is literally indoctrination to create obedient citizens.

You can always unpublic school them at home.

After school lessons and on weekends at home.

You can also parallel educate them.

Have your kids tell you the lessons of the day and then teach them your own way.

But of course you should be allowed to home school.

“But of course you should be allowed to home school.”

I quoted that part, because of course you should. If they want to make sure people know stuff they can have general exams that need to be passed. That I would not object to.

But to your larger point, I totally agree. And I remember my mother saying (this would have been in the 1930s) that every day she and her brother would come home from school and say what Sister had taught that day. And every night her father would bang his fist on the table and explain why Sister was wrong.

Parents should be asking their children what they learned in school every day.

Kids don't know what they're learning may be wrong so the have no 'red flag' experience. They simply hear adults telling them how and what to think without question.

So the teacher says, 'Communism is great!' and they believe it to be true.

That's why parents are constantly being shocked. They're not asking their kids what they're learning.

Simply asking, 'what did you learn in history today' or 'what novel did your teacher give you to read' would go a LONG way to circumvent public school indoctrination.
