Its tongue in cheek. Germany is developed, but you will get arrested if you try to homeschool your children.

It’s very important your children be taught whatever it is the government wants them to be taught! Which went very well for Germany in the 1930s…

>>menset+(OP)
b/c it's seen as a basic right, and issue of equality to have access to the same level of state education. The concept of "your" children is something of the problem.

It could be a problem, but usually isn’t.

The (darkly) funny thing in the case of Germany is that this lack of diversity in education has created a generation with the fertility rate of South Korea (ie dying).

In this case, the state creating a monoculture that results in the ‘destruction’ of the existing state goes to show why evolution values diversity far more than monocultures.

> this lack of diversity in [German] education

any evidence of that?
