I'm embattled w/my child's school at this very moment. Every student is getting a "Chromebook"... The school has been put on notice that it will not be allowed to connect to my home network since Google is currently under investigation for treason.

The purpose behind these is allow kids greater, unfettered access to the internet behind their parents back IMO.

School thinks they're going win this. What they don't realize, I'm familiar w/home schooling & not afraid to pull my child out of his garbage school.

Our school has had Chromebooks for several years now. I'm kinda with you. I pulled my oldest out halfway through freshman year for BS at the school.I'm not above doing it with my youngest. So far I have kept a close eye on the homework and class work and haven't had to call them on any liberal BS. The google having so much access to so much of my son's education DOES bother me though.

They know everything they type... It's like placing a key logger on their life to use against them later.
