For any type of education, you can point to instances of abuse. For home schooling, for public schools, for private schools, for religious schools, for universities. Kids are regularly shot to death in numbers in public schools, for example. People have been beaten and abused in private schools.
What they are trying to do is to use scare stories about home schooling to scare people into giving up their freedom. It's the same tactic that's used all the time to get people to give up their rights, to get us into wars, and so on.
I want more freedom, not less. I won't let authoritarian fear tactics change that.

- Turing_Machine 3y ago> So you want to starve and beat your kids, got it. thank you for confirming that. The OP said nothing of the sort. You're being dishonest here. I'm sorry, but there's no other way it can be characterized.
- nerdjon 3y agoNo I it is a reasonable assumption based on how the OP responded to my comment. I said: > A bare minimum "are the kids physically ok" doesn't remove any of your freedom unless you consider starving and beating your kids a "Freedom" you care about. Which they responded: > I want more freedom, not less. I won't let authoritarian fear tactics change that. They are trying to justify "more freedom" at the cost of children being abused. The only reasonable reason you would do this, when all I am asking for is basic checks to make sure a child is ok, is that you yourself which to starve and abuse children. There is NO other valid reason to fight against what should be a basic protection for children. That reason doesn't exist. Especially when your only defense is "fear tactics".

- nerdjon 3y agoI am not the one pushing back against reasonable protections for children.
- throwawa14223 3y agoInstall facial recognition cameras in your bedroom. You might be beating children in there.
- nerdjon 3y agoThat is your defense? Really? I said basic protections like... just having another adult ever see your child. That isn't a friend or family member. And I was accused of fear mongering...
- throwawa14223 3y agoMy response is absurd because you want to put me and my family to report to a state agent without a warrant because you might detect a crime.
- Turing_Machine 3y ago> No I it is a reasonable assumption based on how the OP responded to my comment. No, it is not any kind of "reasonable assumption". You are, quite simply, lying. You do understand that lying doesn't really work very well when the person's original words are still there for all to see, right? > The only reasonable reason you would do this, when all I am asking for is basic checks to make sure a child is ok, is that you yourself which to starve and abuse children. Nonsense.
