To any passing meter readers, however, she would have looked truant. And had anyone asked her what she was doing out and about during school hours, she would have answered that she is homeschooled. And then she could have entered into anecdotal evidence given by meter readers as to why all homeschools need more accountability to the state.

I think we need a whole new law to deal with incidents like this! Thanks for bringing this up! For your next bill, let me suggest that all public school children must be in the top 40% of their grade level on an annual standardized test, or they must be homeschooled the following school year. We need accountability and standards, after all. You know, our meter reader says that her daughter told her about her friend’s teacher wandering out into the hall during instruction time.

Can someone in government just take the log out of their own eye first? It's really baffling, with the amount of <em>known</em> problems in the public schools, that Ms. Schmimick or whatever would be on such an inquest against homeschoolers.

I was trying, unsuccessfully, to come up with just such an argument this morning, and you did it oh so brilliantly. I don't live in NE, but the same thinking exists elsewhere, unfortunately. BRAVO!
