Ah, I see now where the nit picking is taking place. Ok, I will retract what I said about there not being any government interference in the schools I mentioned.

However the statement that Schools are accredited and can lose their accredidation if they do not meet minimum standards is wrong. SOME schools are accredited and can lose their accreditation if they do not meet minimum standards. Other schools do not have to be accredited at all.

So my actual point, which the nit picker is studiously ignoring, still stands. If one applies the standard that was being advocated, to require all home schooling environments to be accredited and to be required to meed certain academic standards is applied to only home schooling situations, that will NOT correct the problem that was articulated as the reason for wanting these standards unless they are also applied to ALL private schools, including church schools.
