I guess Hitler had the last word...

Homeschoolers are fleeing Germany based on Germany's repressive education laws. These laws were brought in by Hitler to ensure control by the State over the family. Unfortunately today's Germany still thinks this is a good idea.

I wrote to the German Embassy about this, but was told that this was a local state matter and not a federal matter. Of course that was a nice piece of evasion on their part... individual states within Germany don't have their own embassies, and the German Embassy is the representative of Germany not just the German Federal government.

I invite you to contact the German Embassy and respectfully express your concerns:
