Voydatch claims her rights were violated when a court ordered that Amanda attend public school, after the girl's father, Martin Kurowski, said his ex-wife's strict Christian teachings were socially isolating their child and they could not settle on an alternative to home schooling.
On Thursday, a lawyer for Kurowski, who has joint custody, argued in state Supreme Court that parents have no constitutional right to home school their kids.
Kurowski wanted his daughter exposed to different points of view and more opportunities for social interaction than home school afforded, court documents state.
Voydatch sent her daughter to public school in Meredith for certain classes, such as gym and art, but home schooled her using education materials from Bob Jones University, a fundamental Christian college in South Carolina.
