We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights . . .  
Declaration of Independence July 4, 1774
"…If we embrace this un-enumerated right ... we will be ushering in a new regime of judicially prescribed, and federally prescribed, family law. I have no reason to believe that federal judges will be better at this than state legislatures; and state legislatures have the great advantages of doing harm in a more circumscribed area, of being able to correct their mistakes in a flash, and of being removable by the people."
Supreme Court Justice Scalia’s Dissent inTroxel v. Granville (2000)
As of April 13, 2015, there is not a single state, school or district anywhere in the United States that the federal government has penalized anyone for failing to test a quota of its students. To the contrary, eight states — California, Colorado, Minnesota, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Utah, Washington and Wisconsin — have laws specifically allowing parents to opt their children out. If your state is not listed here then you need to be asking the question why not. At the end of the day, it’s a parent’s decision to test or not to test, and vague statements (or direct threats) about penalties and sanctions are only used to place fear in the hearts of parents who are choosing the well-being of their child over the well-being of the school system and test publishers.

Parents, don’t be fooled. Many threats about penalties for opting out have come directly from school district administrators, who have a lot to lose by students opting out. In some cases, parents have been told by administrators that they will face tribunals, be sent to court, or be referred to state child welfare offices for keeping their children at home during testing periods. In the school environment, children have been left out of class parties and been humiliated in front of their classmates.

WHAT BETTER REASONS FOR SETTING UP OR JOINING EXISTING HOME SCHOOL COALITIONS? Where there is a will there is a way!
There are those among us that believe Parental Rights do not come from God. This is one of those subjects that has clear opposite opinions. One believes all childrens rights belong to the parents and then there are those who believe it is the "collective" overseen by the government or United Nations should have this control over every aspect of your childs life.
Michael Farris is referred to as a Constitutional attorney. He is the ​Executive Director of ParentalRights.org; founder of the Home School Legal Defense Association (HSLDA) and Patrick Henry College. Home Schooling parents all over the country look to Farris almost as their protector and savior from the big bad wolves of government and I see him as a wolf in sheep's clothing. His total distortion in regards to the Parental Rights Act (PRA) is leading all parents down a path of parental rights destruction. As you can tell in reading this site does NOT support HSLDA, however if you chose to that is entirely your decision.

The Declaration of Independence tells us our Rights come from God not the government; they are inalienable. The very purpose of the government is to SECURE those rights God gave to us and when the government seeks to take away or distort our rights it is time to throw them out with the “bath water”. The United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights enumerates 30 + rights and states they come from “man” (constitution or laws). Not God but Man! Wrong!
 
Now to take a look at Michael Farris web site parentalrights.org and see what he says about our Rights. If you take the time to go to the web site you will see that once again it is being stated parental rights are coming from the Constitution and not God - that they are fundamental rights not unalienable rights. So now from what I read on the PR website they state:
 
Today the U.N. Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) is approaching a possible ratification by the United States Senate. This treaty, as harmless as it may appear, is capable of attacking the very core of the child-parent relationship, removing parents from their central role in the growth and development of a child, and replacing them with the long arm of government supervision within the home.
 
If as Mr. Farris wishes he succeeds in getting the Parental Rights amendment passed it will become part of the Constitution – no longer overseen by the Declaration of Independence and as such if the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Children is passed the parental control will be taken over by the UN. Do Mr. Farris’ supports realize what kind of hornets nest they are opening?
 
I will take Mr. Farris’ own words and turn them back on him. Yes the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child is a very dangerous document and must never be agreed to by the United States; however, Mr. Farris uses that as an example to his followers as the very reason to support his PRA when they are no different. I wonder if some of the very religious Home School families realize this.
 
Now Mr. Farris, for unclear reasons, has decided we should put our entire Constitution on the line in aiding those who wish to firm up our country as a Democracy or even worse Tyranny by government.
 
From Publius Hildah Parental rights:  God-given and Unalienable? Or Government-granted and Revocable? 7/2-/13) Farris uses Supreme Court Justice Scalia’s Dissent in Troxel v. Granville (2000) using this to support his own theory that unless a right is enumerated in the federal Constitution, judges can't enforce it, and the right can't be protected.
 


 I am only one, but I am one. I cannot do everything,  but I can do something. And because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do the something that I can do. What I can do, I should do. And what I should do, by the grace of God, I will do. - Edward Evertt Hale
