66% of Child Torture Victims "Homeschooled"

[SweetSue92]

And of course they are. If you had designs to torture, starve, beat and neglect your children, why in the world would you daily send them to a place of mandatory reporters?

You wouldn't. You would either withdraw or never enroll them. Which is exactly what the study below found.

This is a serious and growing problem in the homeschooling community which, true to form, homeschoolers are not addressing except to fight oversight. This WILL have a negative effect not only on the perception of homeschooling but also on their success rate over time.

Particularly severe abuse cases that involve school-age children also tend to involve homeschooling. In a 2014 study of child torture, Barbara Knox, a pediatrician at the University of Wisconsin, found that 47% of school-age victims had been withdrawn from school for homeschooling and an additional 29% had never been enrolled.

The Turpin child abuse story fits a widespread and disturbing homeschooling pattern

Conservatives are big on homeschooling.

Take the blinders off and look at the correlation.

3% of US children are homeschooled and only a tiny fraction of those are tortured. So....that's specious.

Be intelligent enough to know that correlation does not equal causation

Are as many non homeschooled kids tortured by their parents?

 

[Muhammed]

Since they really don't visit homes of homes of homeschooling and small daycares (6 or less), I am against them all. Put your child into a decent daycare, a larger one not a 6 child one, and no one should homeschool their kids.
I am pro public schools , that is why we pay taxes. The gov. should not fund parochial schools nor private schools and states should not either.
Michigan court approves public funding for private school mandates

The State does not own your children Penny

Well then, keep them at home or carry vaccinations card for each child when out in the public. No federal assistance either, like Chip, food stamps, or Hud, unless you put them in public schools. Every child should be accounted for everyday.

Accounted for by whom? Unintelligent, mentally unstable, evil, authoritarian, pieces of shit like you?

Adam Lanza was homeschooled

In other news, it has been reported that a large percentage dead children do not attend school.

It's a truancy crisis!!!!

Are as many non homeschooled kids tortured by their parents?

Is todays 'torture" defined by washing dishes and cleaning a chicken coop ?

I agree the Government should not fund private schools. I went to public schools. No child of mine would ever step foot inside a public school (or most private ones). They would be homeschooled, just like my brothers six kids are.

Best argument ever for prohibiting homeschooling completely.

It’s obvious you went to one

Yes I did.

 

[Penelope]

Yes, why would Christians want their holier than thou kids , so much better than other kids , be with the public kids in schools.

 

[Unkotare]

And how many children is that exactly?

Percentages are meaningless without the total number on which they are based

The vast majority of parents who homeschool do not torture their kids

Of course this is true.

But it is also true that the small number of parents who are vicious psychopaths will pull their kids out of public schools so they can torture them.

And btw, no one who wants to bash the public schools here says anything like "the vast number of teachers in public schools are not child abusers", which is also quite true, but doesn't stop them from wanting to "abolish the public schools" and other mouth-breathing, hyperbolic overstatements.

Who has been accusing public school teachers of abuse here? And where has that accusation been used as a reason to abolish public schools?

Weathercock says almost nothing else.

Because public schools infect and poison their minds. Just like the devil wants it.

This should be easily addressed, by requiring all home schooled children to pass a yearly exam standard in basic subjects and Christian religious studies. An abused child would naturally fail all these. Then they can revoke their home schooling privileges.
