    Those parents aren't exactly elevating the opinion of those who home school their children.

    That was the kicker for me, that he was being home schooled. But I'm not holding these two mistakes against good people, good parents who do home school their children.

    Why read it then? He clearly warned you.

    I wondered why even add that.

    But I think it adds something if the parents have been terrorizing their kid. It makes it worse that he never gets out of their clutches and helps explain perhaps why no one may have noticed.

    Just for practicality's sake, if you are so put out at your kid for misbehaving that you tape him to a tree, perhaps you might want to take a break and let the public school have him for 8 hours a day.

    I believe the reference was to the picture and hangman, not the topic itself or Zeke's initial post.

    If that's the case I apologize

    It was probably a way to explain why there were no warnings about the child abuse before the kid's death.

    Had the child attended a school, a teacher may have seen something. Or a teacher may have pointed out the child's absense.
