Homeschooling in Germany-the Struggle for Freedom
Jun 20th, 2008 | By Jessica Parnell | Category: Featured ArticlesI am certain most homeschoolers have been following the disturbing battle that homeschool families in Germany are fighting. Freedoms have been stripped away, families must fear losing their children if they continue to homeschool, and children have been torn from their homes without warning.
The climate appears to be getting worse and families are facing difficult decisions every day.
The Home School Legal Defense Association provided this update recently. Could we end up in the same struggle? I truly hope not. But whether it is on our horizon or not, we need to be on our knees praying for the homeschoolers in Germany and for Germany’s leaders.
We also need to make our voices known to California lawmakers and stop this battle before it begins in our country! For information on the California case and how to contact the judges who made their ludicrous decision, click here.
