The Wall Street Journal has published an editorial addressing Illinois' recent attempts to introduce new regulations on homeschooling and private schools. The editorial raises concerns about the potential implications of these regulations.

An excerpt from the editorial states: “Child abuse is horrific wherever it happens, and public schools aren’t immune. But there is no evidence of a connection between home-schooling and abuse or neglect, and it’s unclear what purpose the new law advances other than piling on onerous and costly regulations that will result in less home-schooling.”

The full editorial can be accessed at the Wall Street Journal's website.
