Homeschooling is now a way for a non-custodial parent to kidnap his (or her) kids.
An arrest warrant alleging violation of a court order, a misdemeanor, is active for Don Ives.
“It is a misdemeanor because, in the eyes of the law, he is a parent,” said Alison Hade, executive director of the Larimer County domestic-abuse program.
She described parental-abduction cases as legal quicksand because a child may appear to be safe and in the care of a responsible parent. When, for example, is a child a captive of one parent and when is a child the parent’s confederate in a spoiled-silly adventure that breaks all the rules of home school?

I can’t figure out what this has to do with homeschooling. I just don’t get this sentence: She described parental-abduction cases as legal quicksand because a child may appear to be safe and in the care of a responsible parent. When, for example, is a child a captive of one parent and when is a child the parent’s confederate in a spoiled-silly adventure that breaks all the rules of home school? At no point did it say he kidnapped them to homeschool them, does it? Was their mother homeschooling them before he kidnapped them? |
