HSLDA promotes articles such as this and says we need to keep thier legal representation in case the big bad school unions come to get us. I am very aware of problems that some homeschoolers have had in the law in the past, and present, and that there is always the possibility that it would happen in the future, but I have to say that I have never met a teacher, prinicpale or other school administrator who felt that strongly against the way I have chosen to educate my kids.
I have even been asked by school administrators to homeschool thier kids... (which I declined)
I think the real enemy of homeschoolers is parents to don't or can't homeschool for any reason, and therefor villify homeschooling in an attempt to legitimize what they are doing and the only right way to go.
While I believe my membership with the homeschool legal defense association is valuable for many reasons, I am really tired of the terror tactics they use to get homeschoolers to sign up.

I think this varies by state. I know people who have been harrassed and had trouble. Does that justify the need for HSLDA? I don't know. But there are people in many areas who are having problems. Is it like it used to be? Maybe not. But I just received an email from someone recently looking for help because of such an issue.
