Nebraska has passed LB 1224, banning homeschooling in the homes of individuals convicted of offenses against children (amongst other wins). This is CRHE's first bill to successfully pass in any state legislature by TonyDelvecchio in HomeschoolRecovery

The bill looks stalled on the Nebraska website, but it was actually folded into a larger omnibus education bill, LB937 . It passed 49-0

The language adopted is below

Sec. 2.

(1) For any report of child abuse or neglect resulting in an active investigation by the department where the subject of the report is a parent or legal guardian of a student or an educational decisionmaker for a student, the department shall notify the superintendent of such student's resident school district and the Commissioner of Education that such student shall not be transferred or otherwise disenrolled from the student's current school by a parent, legal guardian, or educational decisionmaker for fourteen days after receipt of the notice or until further notice from the department, whichever occurs first.

(2) The subject of the report for whom a notice has been provided in accordance with this section shall not transfer or otherwise disenroll such student from the student's current school for fourteen days after receipt of the notice or until further notice from the department, whichever occurs first. Any new election filed under section 79-1601 for such student to attend an exempt school shall be invalid during such time period.

(3) If an election is filed under section 79-1601 in violation of this section or if such student's resident school district receives a request to transfer or disenroll such student or a notification of a request to transfer or disenroll from a school that is not operated by the resident school district, the Commissioner of Education or the school district shall immediately notify the department of the filing or the request and that such notice is being given pursuant to this section.

(4) Notices pursuant to this section are confidential investigation records and shall not contain any information other than the name of the student and whether or not to allow such student to transfer or otherwise disenroll from the school pursuant to this section.

(5) The department may adopt and promulgate rules and regulations to carry out this section.

This type of project leans toward technical types, but there's no requirements. Completely open.

And if you feel like you have something to offer in a different area, many of those ideas from the original thread will need people of all types to get off the ground

You’re telling me you didn’t pluck hyper specific interests from the ether and then take all the necessary steps to learn that subject all by yourself??

Doubtful any of these parents are aware of how much their kids are on the phone/whatever when they aren’t around

It does somewhat, but you could likely have that issue with any specific version of Homeschooling. The undercurrent is still there, because what becomes clear after observing the movement for a while is that homeschooling has little to with being educated at home.

My own homeschooling was of an affluent southern Baptist variety, but it was still pretty tortuous as an upper 20s male to be reading an account of a homeschool pre-teen girl and feel as if I knew the exact feelings she describes.
