A New Jersey Superior Court Judge said last week that home schooling allows child abuse to go undiscovered, World Net Daily reported.
"In today's threatening world, where we seek to protect children from abuse, not just physical, but also educational abuse, how can we monitor the educational welfare of our children" if state law allows home schooling, wrote Judge Thomas Zampino in a child-abuse case.
Christopher Brennan, a New Jersey attorney, said the judge is wrong to assume that home schooling is abusive.
"He's presenting this as though it's authority," he said. "He's just making this up, with no basis whatsoever."
