Oppose

Oppose

3. What other requirements, if any, would you favor as a condition of a parent's right to teach his or her children at home?

(Left Blank)

4. Other comments that you wish to make on the subject of home education:

I have no qualms about parent's home schooling their children, that is their right to do so. There are a lot of well educated home schooled people out there. However, I feel there needs to be some sort of testing whether it from the local school district or the home schooling organization with the standards of testing. I also feel they should have to take the same test/s that any child has to take for High School level graduating/diploma. NOTE: I called father of home schooled kids and he gave me his answers to your questions quickly. A few hours later the mother called and gave me her answers totally opposite of her husband's.
