Does HSLDA represent a member s right to homeschool when challenged by third parties (grandparents, for example) in visitation and/or custody cases?
Yes. Unlike a custody case between two parents, this is a clear parental rights case. We believe parents should have the absolute right to control the upbringing of their children without interference from grandparents and other relatives, if they so choose, where there is no clear evidence that the parents are placing the child in danger.
