If I may say so, your friend isn't the brightest candle on the cake if she didn't research the rules before and then tried to dodge them. I bet she would have cried foul murder if CPS came to her house and threatened to take away her kids...

I double checked, and my friend successfully got away with homeschooling her kids in Germany. This was over five years ago. She thinks that maybe because she's American, they didn't follow up as much as they would have with a German citizen. She also told me today that she was there for almost a year, not a few months.

I wouldn't suggest anyone else try this.
