Home Schooling – Parental Choice
A recent case in New Hampshire highlights the difficulty for family law courts when parents disagree about their child’s education. In the New Hampshire case, the mother wanted their daughter to continue homeschooling with her, while the father wanted his daughter to begin public education. That court held that based on the circumstances, and this little girls academic needs, she should start school at the local public school.
When Colorado parents with joint decision making responsibility can’t agree, eventually a family law judge may be called upon to decide where a child should attend school. The judge will listen to all the facts the parties put in front of her and make a ruling based on what she believes to be in the best interests of the child.
