11/24 Great School Debate
Quote From: sneakers145No, we're not talking about that.
We were talking about respecting the RIGHTS of others to make choices, lest we find our own RIGHTS taken away.
And since this is a homeschooling board, the religious homeschoolers were the pioneers to guarantee that we all have the right to homeschool. And now there are groups who would seek to regulate homeschooling further, taking away homeschoolers freedom of choice.
And if you are considering homeschooling your own children someday, as you claim you are, then this is a real issue. You don't have to agree with the religious right and their views. But you should respect their RIGHT to homeschool in the manner they choose.
That was my point earlier. Ok...I respect anyone's right to believe whatever wacky thing they want to long as they don't hurt others. I do think they are hurting their kids who might turn around and hurt others...but that is in the minutia...it's hard to sort out.
But I also respect my right to show my disrespect to those ideas.
