A message from Mike Smith

Dear Members,
The
events reported out of Riverside County last week shocked all of us.
The charges brought against the parents are horrific and, along with
you, we are grieving for the 13 siblings.
Public
news stories like this may create a backlash in public opinion. But
based on our experience with thousands of homeschooling families over
the last 35 years, we know that this case is an aberration. And we
reject attempts to hastily target homeschooling as the problem and
regulations as a quick fix.
We’ve
been contacted by some members, non-members, and group leaders
expressing concern about the possibility of increased regulation or
public distrust of homeschooling. These are understandable natural
reactions.
But we want to reassure you and affirm that your right to homeschool is clearly established.
Do not be fearful.
Continue homeschooling as you usually do.
Be confident.
Be friendly.
Keep encouraging your kids to go outside and play.
And go on being involved in your neighborhood and your larger community.
HSLDA
is committed to protecting the right to homeschool. We’ve always
believed the heart of our mission at HSLDA is to take the worry out of
the legal and legislative aspects of homeschooling so that parents like
you can focus on loving, enjoying, and helping your families thrive.
Homeschool on, my friends!
