NEA Seeks to Limit Homeschooling-Please Respond

I received the following note from a homeschooling message board:

Dear Fellow Homeschoolers,
Many of you may already know that the National Education Association
(NEA) has taken a strong stand against homeschooling in their 2007-
2008 resolution. (You can read more about this at the link site I
have provided in this e-mail.) There is an opportunity for
homeschoolers to sign an online petition citing our stand against the
NEA's resolution. It will make an even greater impact if you make a
comment when signing the petition.

The goal is for 10,000 homeschoolers to sign the petition, and
currently a little over 5,000 have signed; please let all your
homeschooling friends, neighbors, and support group members know
about this petition and encourage them to sign it The link is below:

I signed the petition and added the following note:

Homeschooled students have proven by their accomplishments that homeschooling works well and generally produces educated, well-rounded adults. For the common good homeschooling families save the state tax money and produce adults who can think, not having been educated with assembly line tactics. NEA's proposed restrictions on homeschooling would limit the freedom of choice that has been granted by favorable legislation in most states. How in the world does the NEA know what is best for my child? I have 2 sons that were homeschooled from K-12th grade who are both successful engineers. I have a daughter who is receiving her AA degree at 17 who was only homeschooled before she started college. In addition to superior academics, our children have avoided the negative influences which are often overwhelming in the state schools.
America stands for freedom. Let us teach our children and provide opportunities for them to learn in any variety of ways. Real, vibrant learning more often occurs outside the traditional classroom than in it.

PLEASE CONSIDER SIGNING THE PETITION, TOO.
