[quote]Earlier this month, a German teen-ager was forcibly taken from her parents and imprisoned in a psychiatric ward. Her crime? She is being home-schooled.
On Feb. 1, 15 German police officers forced their way into the home of the Busekros family in the Bavarian town of Erlangen. They hauled off 16-year-old Melissa, the eldest of the six Busekros children, to a psychiatric ward in nearby Nuremberg. Last week, a court affirmed that Melissa has to remain in the Child Psychiatry Unit because she is suffering from "school phobia."
Home-schooling has been illegal in Germany since Adolf Hitler outlawed it in 1938 and ordered all children to be sent to state schools. The home-schooling community in Germany is tiny. As Hitler knew, Germans tend to obey orders unquestioningly. Only some 500 children are being home-schooled in a country of 80 million. Home-schooling families are prosecuted without mercy. [/quote]

I don't see what's so terrible here. A certain amount of control over what children are being taught is necessary. In home schooling, such control is impossible without seriously violating privacy laws.

But of course, HITLER made this law, so it is [B][U]EVIL[/U][/B]. I suppose the reverse is also true then; if a 'good' administration perpetrates an act of evil, it will become 'good'. Lalalala.
