Agree but I think it’s vanishingly unlikely. Worst case scenario (this decade): some states make it harder. (Worst case scenario beyond this decade is past the event horizon, and that’s about the timescale that NYT/Harvard-style trial balloons have impact, so who knows.)
I mean this seriously: banning homeschooling is a pick-up-and-leave level red flag. It's no secret how poor US child education is, nor how physically and psychologically unsafe schools can be. Parents absolutely must retain the right to say "no more, my child is being harmed."https://twitter.com/JulyanMorley/status/1286002884824489985 …

2 kids in public, one in private. It’s been really, really eye opening. It’s def reshaped my view of public and not for the better and I live in a “great” school district. Distance learning has only increased the gap in my perception.

In the US it has constitutional protection per SCOTUS rulings. It'd be a legit red flag if they tried to get rid of it without a constitutional amendment. And by red flag, I mean that's a line in the sand for us parents. And not the fake, we'll complain on twitter kind.

It works fine in most other countries e.g. Germany where homeschooling is not permitted.

It doesn’t. I wish my parents could have pulled me out of school when it was clearly very obviously causing psychological harm that I’m still trying to recover from.

"physically and psychologically unsafe" is a good phrase - that expresses the way I've long felt about many school environments.
