Badman (so aptly named) is stating Germany as a country to be upholded in their 'no home ed law'. This very law was brought about by Hitler!
I'm on your side in this, but you do yourself a serious disservice by name-checking Hitler.

Did you know, for instance, that Hitler passed a law decreeing that all Germans should have paid holidays? Are you suggesting that's a Bad Idea? Or are you suggesting that outlawing home-schooling leads automatically to death camps?

What exactly does the Hitler comparison do? Besides distract from your point and make it seem far more extreme than it is?

Good point. You don't throw the baby out with the bathwater.

Hitler was an utter bastard, there's no doubt, but not every single thing he championed was evil by association.

The Volkswagen, for example... beloved vehicle of hippies. Even Jewish ones.
