The fact that a parent can just “pull” a kid from school with no good reason is just insane. It’s such fertile ground for all manners of child abuse.
That’s insane… Do you think you know how to raise other people’s children better than they do?
Found the Nazi.
I hope you’re trolling, but in case you’re not let me walk you through a series of arguments that should hopefully convince you that allowing homeschooling without a good reason (mostly medical) is a bad idea.
Society must take care and protect the vulnerable people in it. Children are pretty much the most vulnerable group. Therefore, society must take extra care to protect its children.
The best way to ensure someone’s safety is to regularly check on them. Thus society must regularly check on every child. This is the most important purpose of a school. This, combined with the fact that the majority of child abuse happens at home, would already be enough to ban homeschooling without a good reason.
In order to continue functioning well, society must consist mostly of socialized people tolerant to each other. Children are the future of any society. Thus society must make sure that children are socialized and tolerant to others. The best way to socialize children is to place them in a group of other people, and the best way to teach children tolerance is to make that group include different ethnicities, cultures, belief systems, and sexualities. This is the second most important purpose of a school.
In order to develop, society needs educated people; and, educated people tend to be better off in their lives. Childhood is the easiest time to teach basic concepts. Thus, society must make sure it educates children. This is the third most important purpose of a school.
Of course, if a parent is not a child abuser and puts in a lot of work, they could substitute school with other ways to ensure their child’s safety, socialization, tolerance and education. But it is a lot of work for which most people just don’t have the resources, and unfortunately there are a lot of child abusers out there (not necessarily sexual or even physical, but definitely psychological).
If you allow arbitrarily “pulling” children from school, you will just statistically end up with a lot of bigoted uneducated people with child abuse trauma. Which is exactly what’s happening in the US.
To answer your question directly: I don’t know better than any particular individual parent, but I know there a lot of parents out there which should not be allowed to homeschool. Probably including this lady.
Do you think you know how to raise other people’s children better than they do?
A drunken Orangutan would do a better job of raising this woman’s kids, she’s literally sabotaging their education because she’s mad someone made it harder for her to raise little bigots.

Must be looking in a mirror.
Look at this monkey grabbing a fish and saying, “hey I’m going to save you!” … while you put that fish safely up a tree.
Are you drunk or just a very low cognitive function CHUD?
Absolutely this. In fact all the recent laws enacted over parental rights are also a child abuse nightmare.
You sound like a child abuse nightmare only they’re not your children there’s somebody else’s which is extra fucked up.
And you sound like you think parents rights to control their children should trump the child’s right to an education. Which is the sort of bullshit that religious child abusers think.
Someone needs to check this user’s hard drives stat!
That sounds like a confession. 🤔
The video in question: “Why is PRIDE in June?!?”
The video was first published in 2017 on the Queer Kid Stuff channel, where host Lindz Amer discusses the origins of the gay rights movement and the history of civil rights activism. In the age-appropriate video, Amer speaks with a stuffed bear and recounts that Pride Month dates back to 1969. An animated segment depicts Marsha P. Johnson and Sylvia Rivera standing up for queer rights during the Stonewall uprising in New York City.
The video notably doesn’t call the famous protest a riot or delve into a debate about civil disobedience. It also never discusses sex. It does describe the nature of activism, including through education.
“Just watching and learning from Queer Kid Stuff makes you an activist too,” Amer says in the video.
But Varchetto said her 9-year-old returned home with what she considered an alarming takeaway: that the video said the child could identify as gay, lesbian, bisexual, asexual, transgender, nonbinary or Two-Spirit.
“I need parents to be informed of this,” she told the radio station. “Parents have the right to know what was taught to their kids. Whether or not you agree with it or disagree is irrelevant. You don’t get to teach and go rogue on subjects that are this controversial without providing parents a notice to opt out.”
Yes, yes. How horrible for your child to be aware that LGBT+ people exist and it’s ok if they’re one as well.
At some point, every person needs to ask themselves: am I gay?
Honestly, if you haven’t asked, you haven’t lived
I hope those children affected get the opportunity soon to permanently cut their awful parents out of their lives
Let’s just give them guns and see who they shoot first.
(It might be you)
Better idea: let’s throw the parents and any assholes who view children as property into the deepest hole we can find and forget they ever existed!
You’re property of the government…
At least parents usually care more about their property(kiddos.)
I think that’s an amazing idea and I encourage you to find any hole you can! The deepest one possible and jumping it yourself! Take nobody else with you! Just yourself!
