Public schools are so easy these days. I live in Alabama and the state is ranked 49th in test scores.

I think that is SOO unfair. I know how it is to be homeschooled, and it's a wonderful thing. I was homeschooled until the third grade, and I had plenty of friends. I was, however, shocked at the naivete of some of the children in school. ^^; Just my two cents.
i love you. </3

I know. Some teens today are under too much peer pressure at school and sometimes don't even feel safe at school because they might be afraid a bully will steal their lunch or beat them up. You should always be able to feel safe in your school. If you don't feel safe, I say homeschool.

I am homeschooled as well. I have a very full life, filled with relationships with people of various ages in many areas. I am not anti-social or backward. My mother teaches me and my brothers to think critically, to examine evidence and seek truth. Most homeschoolers are completely normal kids, at least as normal as the kids who are institutionalized in a public school setting. Those of you who are anti-homeschooling have not given any relevant evidence for your opinions. For every backward, racist homeschooler you show me, I'll show you ten that go to school outside the home. Get your facts straight!

I like going to school to hanging out with people and being social, but homeschooling still shouldn't be outlawed.

Thats sounds exactly like something that the UN would do. Its a complete outrage. Personally, I don't think that it will happen, because to many businesses would go belly up. Like "Pedmont Homeschooling", all it does is register and manage homeschooling families. And I know there are many more like it that would be out if this law was placed.

My question is why are they doing this? There are some schools in neighborhoods that don't provide enough education for more advanced people. You'd be suprised at some schools you'd see around the USA. Sometimes you're better off homeschooling.

According to a new "interpretation" of what is known as "customary international law," some U.S. judges have ruled that, even though the U.S. Senate and President have never ratified the Convention, it is still binding on American parents. "In the 2002 case of Beharry v. Reno, one federal court said that even though the Convention was never ratified, it still has an 'impact on American law'," Farris explained. "The fact that virtually every other nation in the world has adopted it has made it part of customary international law, and it means that it should be considered part of American jurisprudence."
If everyone else jumped off a bridge, would Judge Farris jump off too?

Exactly. Homeschooling could be being done by corrupt parents who will twist around history lessons to make them into people like them.
So are you saying that the possibility that could happen should ruin it for everyone? Does this not work both ways, where public education could be done by a corrupt state government which will twist around history and all other classes to make students into people like them? You know if people are allowed to leave their homes, they might kill others. Does this mean that the government has the right to restrict people to their homes?
