Is California right about homeschooling?

I heard about this on the radio and I have mixed feelings.

Here is an article

Full disclosure, my wife is a teacher and I can't imagine someone trying to just pick up and be a teacher with no formal training. So, I 'm definitely understand why California is trying to implement some reforms.

But, I get the test scores for my school. Home School students always trend high. I noticed it 10 years ago. I notice it today. it's unbelievable.

What do you think?
