I have heard horror stories too, Harvey. Stories like those are the
reason I am in law school. I will be prepared for a legal fight if I need to
be. One of the groups I have subscribed to online is HomeSchool Legal
Defense. It is, unfortunately, a group of lawyers who homeschool so they can
teach fundamentalist religion, but they have good info nonetheless.
