Here's what you're saying Mark said: <BR/> <BR/><B>Decision to homeschool = red flag</B><BR/><BR/>Here's what he actually said, as evidenced by the email you quoted:<BR/><BR/><B>Person identified as potential abuser, pulling their child out of public school = red flag</B><BR/><BR/>There's a big difference. Also, he only proposed restricting the ability to homeschool for persons identified as potential abusers.<BR/><BR/>Bottom line: are you arguing that people identified as potential abusers should be allowed to homeschool their children? If so, what is your justification for that?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19817992.post-1162488028165504542006-11-02T12:20:00.000-05:002006-11-02T12:20:00.000-05:00Ricky Holland was in school in Jackson County.

When his parents moved to Ingham County, they homeschooled.<BR/><BR/>Because Ricky was originally a foster child (place with the Hollands and adopted later), there were social workers involved from the beginning.<BR/><BR/>I believe that the original child abuse claim was made by Ricky himself to a social worker and later to a health care provider.<BR/><BR/>There were complaints also made by the school in Jackson and the neighbor. <BR/><BR/>Ricky also received state provided psychological care. The Hollands pulled him from the psychological care at the same time they pulled him from school.

When social workers respond to reports of abuse, my guess is they are starting at the child's school, talking to thier teachers and checking with the nieghbors. If this is the case, they are not Homeschooled. Where are these statistics? ChrissyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
