Yes, the Romeike-family has been “punished” by law, and yes, it is correct to discuss and argue about.

BUT: They never ever have been punished by a Nazi-LAW.

The german School-Laws are based on Martin Luther who claimed public Schools in the late 16th century. First public School law was given by the Prussian king Friedrich Wilhelm I.- the Father of Frederic II the Great who performed public Schools much more educating engineers and administrative employees.

A federal law has been published by the first republic (Weimar) in 1919.

So, there has been no NAZI, maybe, the Nazis have followed These laws, maybe, the used this for indoctrination – in the same way, as the russians, communists and in the east-german “DDR” until 1990.

Are there so many good arguments, reasons that a wrong “NAZI” fact has to be used?

By the way: today we discuss in Germany, how to win the immigrants from Turkey, Africa or wherever over to let there children going to School, at least to speak and to write german – the language where they are living.

1. Children under 16 are not allowed in game rooms.
2. Children are not allowed in movies that are not age appropriate. It does not matter whether their parents think it is okay or not.
3. Children need to be properly educated.
4. Children need proper health care. If you do not take your children in for regular check-ups, you can get a visit from social services here.

I am sure the Romeike family is very nice and would teach their children very well. But not everyone would and if they start making excpetions for one, then they need to do it for everyone. Besides, the Romeike’s can always do “their home schooling” after the children get home from state schooling.
