Homeschooling on trial

I have to admit, California is the LAST place Minor Topics would expect to lawfully restrict the rights of homeschooling parents. California does a lot of crazy-ass things, but to punish many of their own — it’s just weird.

A state appellate court ruling that says parents must have a teaching credential to home school their children has rocked home schoolers throughout the Golden State, and many expect the decision to be appealed to the California Supreme Court.

The controversial unanimous ruling by a three-judge panel in Los Angeles was triggered by a dependency court proceeding.
