@ Gucci, that is not what it is about. Okay, the following is not an attack, but just a passionate response. It is a sensitive spot for me, like cars and cricket is for the others.
This whole thing is about freedom. In this case the girl was pulled from her home by 15 cops and a judge, and by German law, the child will not be returned.(That was Hitler) Then they did tests on her. Now excuse me if I am wrong in this, but if 15 cops pulled you from your home and took you to a psyc ward and did tests, will your tests say something like: "The child is happy and well-adjusted"? I am 24, and if 15 cops came to arrest me for something I will look depressed and freaked out. Now also about home schooling, my bosses kids are being home-schooled. They are 8 and 11 respectively. They have activities every day including gymnastics, and all kinds of things. Now they do about 2 hours of school every day, and they are 2 years ahead of most kids their age. The 11 year old is reading books I never read at her age, and she is way more mature than a lot of 15 year olds I know. So what is the issue? I hated school, and I would have preferred to do home schooling, since school was a waste. I had lots of friends, but I am an introvert. Till this day I hate working in an environment where there is disturbances, despite my 12 years in school where I had exactly that. Nothing will fix that. That is who I am.
Luckily our government is not enforcing laws set by one of the worlds biggest killers.
Have you read animal farm? And 1984?
I think this will make a great cover for the follow-up for Animal Farm if ever there was one:

I just think this decision is not up to government. This particular girl was set to start her higher education next year(she is 15) because she has caught up and gotten ahead of the school system.
But Gucci, read Animal Farm, read 1984 and after those 2 books you can tell me what you think.
They always say that for security you have to give up freedom. Now what if government started brainwashing us?

Okay, I am sorry about all that nonsense. One day it will be all peoples concern, or at least, those who choose to think about it in terms of freedom to be able to be an individual.

Ye i totaly i agree with wat ur saying @ franc, im not saying they must illegalys home schooling since other people like you would prefer to be in a more peaceful and alot more comfortable enviroment, so ye i understand what you saying,and its true its realy messd up that they actualy dragged sum1 out of their home, thats not fair testing at all,the results would be unsuprisingly poor
