It's going to open a can of worms that doesn't need to be opened. You will start seeing more and more people crying foul because this isn't offered here but is here. We're trying to create a buffet line for education and while on the surface it looks good but you get into the actual nuts and bolts of it then you are going to create a mess.
Exactly. And that mess translates into millions of dollars in lawsuits trying to settle this stuff out because everybody will have a million reasons to justify their kid being home schooled but can go to school when it's time to play sports.
While I do understand the need to home school such as medical reasons, I don't see how somebody who opts to home school a perfectly healthy abled mind and body kid who can all of a sudden go to school to play sports but not go to school.
And if they're home-schooled for medical reasons, it's hard to justify how they would be medically cleared playing a competitive sport in the first place.
