mama2cntrykids Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 I came across this in one of my yahoo groups... http://www.worldnetdaily.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=101371 and was wondering what other ppl thought of it? I have no idea how realiable World Net Daily is. Nor do I know if this is a real threat to those of us in the US. What do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CookieMonster Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 I am a conservative Christian. I find World Net Daily's 'reporting' of the news to be a clean version of tabloid press. JMHO Here is the same story from HSLDA: UN Treaty Jeopardizes HSing Also, there is a thread on the board right now about the UN Rights of a Child: Call Your Senators, etc. Hopefully that clears some things up for you. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I was getting that same idea while browsing through other articles on that site. I wasn't sure though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orthodox6 Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 I would not cite "WND" in a research bibliography any more than I would cite a "wiki" article. I would think of WND as a "personal blog" blown up to online newspaper size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrissiK Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 I agree with the others' opinions on WND. With that said, I do think we need to be vigilant and aware of what's going on in other countries. Our govt. seems to be highly influenced by the opinions of other countries and what happens elsewhere could make it here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcconnellboys Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 I just read a release by HSLDA which essentially says the same things. This story is just picking up on that. Whether or not it is true that this is now occurring in Britain I do not know.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura Corin Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 As I stated elsewhere, the UK government wanted to take control of home education. It would have done this with or without reference to the UN treaty. The UN angle is a red herring. Laura Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
