"Yoder involved children whose parents' religion (Amish) accepted education
given outside of the home for grades one through eight but mandated that
children not continue their education in a public or private school past the
eighth grade. The Yoder court rejected the notion that parents have a
universal right to refuse to obey a state's compulsory education law."
What if you're homeschooling for religious reasons? Here in Texas, a lot of
parents do.
