INVESTIGATIONS AIMED AT HOME SCHOOLERS & all other kids unless they go to private schools
[link to www.wnd.com]

This is proposed for Connecticut--be on the lookout to squelch this ugly shit if it rears its head in your state.

"In what critics are seeing as an ultimate power grab, state officials in Connecticut are pushing forward a bill to require state investigations of children like never before – calling for a “confidential behavioral health assessment” of every public school student in grades 6, 8, 10 and 12, and every homeschool student at ages 12, 14 and 17. (NOTE: BUT NOT PRIVATE SCHOOLS)

The proposed Bill 374 is being described as the ultimate home invasion.

“It’s outrageous that state officials could come into private homes and potentially remove children if they are assessed as a threat as a result of the investigation,” Home School Legal Defense Association Senior Counsel Dee Black told WND in an interview.
(snip)
“These assessments would be conducted by an unspecified health care provider and would be conducted even though there was no indication whatsoever that these children had a behavioral problem.”

We need to do something with these parasites... And sooner rather then later.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 34320151


Calls and emails to local school boards and your state's department of education warning them to not even try this might be an effective precaution.

Connecticut residents and other interested persons:

“Immediately contact members of the committee and express … opposition to this unwarranted invasion of family privacy,” Black said. “This legislation is sponsored by Sen. Toni Nathaniel Harp (10th Dist.) and Rep. Toni E. Walker (93rd Dist.), [and] the bill is presently in the Public Health Committee.”

Some DO care and need to know they are supported in their beliefs. The others need to know they will be strongly opposed in this kind of thing. Pubic outcry is not always effective but in many cases it is.

We home schooled our two boys for several years because the local schools simply were not doing the job. They are both teenagers now and are back in public school again.

Things just aren't like they used to be when I was in school. Teachers either don't know how to deal with any student that doesn't fit their constricting statist idea of what a kid is supposed to be like, or they are forced into insanely stupid reactions over the least little thing. Today's public school environment is not conducive to learning.
"God forbid we should ever be 20 years without such a rebellion. The people cannot be all, & always, well informed... If they remain quiet under such misconceptions it is a lethargy, the forerunner of death to the public liberty... Let them take arms... What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. " - Thomas Jefferson in 1787

Not only not conducive, but repelling forces.

You are right. They do still teach some watered down and over simplified facts, but they don't teach people to think anymore or understand why things are the way they are.
