Children Seized in Shocking Raid on Homeschool Family
The privacy of our families and the right to educate our own children is seen as a threat to many in government authority. The goal to vaccinate every child in the U.S., for example, runs into a road block with homeschool families as they are not part of "the system." Germany is the only western country that does not allow homeschooling. The ban on homeschooling began with a Nazi law passed in 1938, and the European Human Rights Court upheld that ban in 2006. Earlier this year, the Obama administration decided to challenge the legal asylum of a German homeschool family here in the U.S. Now comes a new story of a peaceful homeschool family in Germany who had all four of their children, ages 4 to 17, force-ably removed from their home in a military style raid.
