New Hampshire judge needs to GO AWAY!

(This is about the worst thing I ever read. Our country lets Muslim schools teach Islam and I bet they aren't forced to teach other religions. I would move to another state. In fact, I may just disappear until my kids were old enough to be on their own. This isn't Communist China where the parents are done after their baby is born and the government takes over. At least it isn't supposed to be.)

"The latest of many examples of government arrogance has come in New Hampshire, of all places, where the state motto is 'Live Free or Die.' A state judge has ordered a girl who was being educated at home by her mother to begin attending a public school because of the 'rigidity' of her mother's religious views. The judge, Lucinda V. Sadler, said that the 10-year-old girl needed to consider other worldviews as she matures. ... There are a number of issues in this case, not the least of which is the court's attempt to define what represents an 'extreme' religious view and what is more 'mainstream.' A growing number of parents, including some in my family, home-school their children. My personal experience is that these kids get a better education, are better adjusted and easily gain entry into college because of their superior grades and seriousness of purpose, not to mention their character. Another issue is the apparent one-way street constructed by Judge Sadler. If a Christian girl ought to go to public school to learn about other views (this presumes she does not know about them through study at home, reading a newspaper or turning on the television), why shouldn't the judge order a public school student to get a Christian-Jewish-Islamic-based education so that such a student might become acquainted with the Bible-Talmud-Koran? ... Amanda's mother retained the Alliance Defense Fund, the conservative legal alliance that works to defend religious liberty, but meanwhile, the girl has been forced by the court to sit in a fifth-grade classroom, which is a violation of her and her mother's consciences and the First Amendment. ... I'm on the side of the people. The New Hampshire judge and the Obama administration are on the side of the elites. And that's why so many are justifiably angry."

Though it is a court order,,, I don't think it could be enforced. But what this judicial system does these days is beyond belief anyway,,and they have the president in their back-pocket. My daughter has home schooled her 3 children,,and trust me,,,this girl in NH is not being held back any more than any other child. My 3 grand-children are active in the church,and school activities,, and they still are getting a far superior education. Any time I visit them and see the structure that my daughter has created it amazes me. Walking into their home is like walking into a classroom,, and yet it is still home. They separate school and home. I am so proud of what my daughter does.

One of my best friends was brought up in Haiti because her father was a missionary there. Her mother home schooled the five children. The mother spent two hours per day to school all five kids. The kids came to the USA to go to college and they all did far above average in every thing. They were not backwards, shy, socially unfit and lacking in any kind of knowledge like some people try to tell you. In fact, they were just the opposite. They had knowledge that most kids would never hear.
