The lure of public homeschool subsidy

Parents who accept public money to homeschool thier children should not be surprised when the restrictions are placed on how they are to homeschool.  This recently happened in Alaska.

Depending on which programs their children are enrolled in, parents of home-schooled correspondence students receive as much as $1,800 a year in state money for education costs

If adopted, the regulations would prevent parents from using the money to pay for student memberships in health clubs or recreational facilities, private or group lessons or any expenses incurred during a trip that's more than 50 miles from the student's home.

The big problem here is that they are denying homeschool kids the same rights and activities that public school kids receive.
