“Osmond argues that requiring children to attend school has caused some parents to ‘completely disengage themselves from their obligation to oversee and ensure the successful education of their children.’ ‘I believe the time has come for us to re-evaluate what we expect of parents and the public education system.’ Osmond recommends ‘restoring the parental right to decide if and when a child will go to public school’ to uphold the ‘principles of personal freedom and unalienable rights.’ Part of the solution, he believes, is to ‘stop dictating the number of hours a child must be present in a classroom.'”
