Awfully Scary!!

I heard this on Focus on the Family this morning. Please go to this site http://www.citizenlink.org/CLtopstories/A000006717.cfm and read the short article. At the bottom of the article, you can sign the petition (which I encourage you to do), or you can listen to the whole broadcast (which I also strongly encourage!!)

Please, check this out. It is awfully scary that the courts can take away the rights of parents like this. This morning it hit awfully close to home as I was listening to the broadcast. Often court rulings made in California set a precedent for the rest of the nation. That is SO scary to me, and could mean that I may not be able to home-school my children if we so choose. (actually we wouldn't even have a CHOICE!!!)

p.s. I signed the petition, and the petition itself has a brief, easy-to-understand explanation of the ruling and its implications. It is very easy to sign the petition-it took me less than 30 seconds.

Thanks Shaunna! I signed the petition. You're right this is scary! What ever happened to civil liberties?
