California homeschooling being given 2nd chance: "A California court order that essentially banned homeschooling in the state has been vacated, and the judges who issued the ruling will hear further arguments on the status of parents who want to teach their own children."

Whose kids are they?: "Recently the Second District Court of Appeal ruled that parents have no constitutional right to educate their children at home without state certification. In his written opinion, Justice H. Walter Croskey cited a long series of rulings indicating that the parental right to educate their own children is not absolute under American constitutional law. But the court’s ruling raises the serious question of whether it is good public policy for the State of California to insist that all children be educated by people who have a teaching credential. The most lucid arguments favor the position that homeschooling should be at least a permissible option, possibly even encouraged by the state."
