GOOD FOR YOU AMERICA: US judge grants German homeschooling family asylum
An American judge on Tuesday granted asylum to a German couple who wanted to homeschool their children, bringing international attention to the debate in Germany over the rights of parents to freely educate their children.

The decision came from immigration judge Lawrence O. Burman in Memphis, Tennessee. Judge Burman said the German government violated Uwe and Hannelore Romeike’s “basic human rights,” according to the Web site of the Home School Legal Defense Association, a Virginia-based pro-homeschooling organization that represented the couple.

“Homeschoolers are a particular social group that the German government is trying to suppress,” Burman was quoted as saying. “This family has a well-founded fear of persecution… therefore, they are eligible for asylum.”

Unbelievable...

In Germany you don't even have the right to choose your childrens education?

I would never have believed it.

It's state indoctrination or bust in Germany I guess.

Pity.

 Quoting: Exhibit A

Yes, you have.

There are accredited private religious schools in the FRG.

These people however don't want their kids to learn about sex and evolution.
They don't care about their children's right to be exposed to a multitude of ideas so they will be able to make up their own minds some day.

That is rich coming from someone who's country never bother to ratify the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

Germany is a scary place, still.

The police will come and apprehend your child if you homeschool.

WTF?

And the alternative is...private RELIGIOUS school?

or the public school system which has mandatory Catholic studies.


Hmm, CONTROL MUCH?

Oh boy, Netherlands, are you ever ignorant.

Maybe you could look up what home schooling is and how successful American parents have been by doing it.

Not to toot my own horn, or anything, but I have a child in the Ivy League and 3 more on their way. They are ignorant of nothing!

There are no 'multitudes of ideas' in accredited schools, only one. All others are censored. Thus the need to homeschool.

Nowhere in the US Constitution does it say the state will raise your children. I'm sure the same is true in all of Europe.

The US has a Bill of Rights which protects our rights, not gives us our rights. The Human Rights from the UN are diametrically opposed to this.

You are yet another piece of evidence that Europe is lost! European governments should concern themselves with teaching finance or capitalism to its children...or ridding Europe of the Muslim hoard that is taking Europe over....instead there are Europeans like you that are concerned that "facts" about vaginas and penises are taught instead...the prosecution rests...it is proved...you are a moran!
