Protecting home schooling through the Casey undue burden standard

Article Abstract:

The undue burden standard developed for state regulation of abortion in Planned Parenthood of Southeastern Pennsylvania v. Casey should be applied to regulation of home schooling as well. Under the proposed standard, regulations such as standardized testing, reporting requirements and on-site inspections would probably be upheld, but those involving teacher certification and curriculum content would be considered suspect. The undue burden standard would provide greater constitutional protection to parents than the rational basis standard that is currently applied.

Freud's legacy

Article Abstract:

Child sexual abuse first became an issue when Freud theorized that most cases of hysteria in women have been caused by 'premature sexual experiences'. Studies on child molestation began in the 1920s while the first national estimate of cases came out in 1948. The Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act was enforced in 1974 along with the creation of the National Center for Child Abuse and Neglect. The National Child Abuse Coalition was formed in 1979 to pressure the congress to pass ad implement laws.
