school / family
i have been out of school for 2 weeks and will be out about another week because of medical problems . i really want to be homeschooled , but my dad threatened my mom saying that if she doesnt keep me in a public school then he will take her to court and get custody of me . so do you think my mom can go on and homeschool me or do you think my dad would be able to really take her to court and get me ?

Maybe give some free advice about: School?
If you want to be homeschooled and your mom wants to do that for you, then there is nothing that can change that. If you have been out of school for medical reasons, being homeschooled is probably a good option.
Yes, your father can take it to court. Just about anything can be taken to court. No, there is not a chance at all that he can win. Most states have an age when the child can choose who they want to live with, and in most it is no older than 13. As you need to be 13 to post here, I would say that you have nothing to worry about. Unless your mom is actually causing you harm that he can prove, you will be able to live with whichever parent you want. Since you seem to prefer to be with your mom, I am going to guess that she isn't harming you in any way.

It's your mothers decision to homeschool you. Your dad can take her to court, but as long as your mom can do a good raising you there is npot a very good chance of him winning. The courts usually lean towards the mother, if she is capable of raising you. If you are above a certain age group and you want to be homeschooled and your mom agrees with it there is no reason that he should get custody over that.

hey, well make a poster of pros and cons of homeschooling. of course you can cheat a little and make a few more pros then cons, but you still need the cons there. he could take you to court. his chances of winning are slim.
