Is it 2007 or 1937?

A German appeals court ordered a 15-year-old homeschooled girl to undergo psychiatric evaluation after they removed her from her family, and they have now ordered psych tests on her parents as well.
"Even those German families who already have fled to other countries because of Germany's homeschool ban are moving into hiding because of the possibility they could be returned to face German fines or jail time for homeschooling."
...
"Members of the German homeschool community previously have taken their battle for the right to teach their children Christian basics to the Human Rights Court for the European Union, asking for affirmation of the statement in the European Convention on Human Rights that: "In the exercise of any functions which it assumes in relation to education and to teaching, the State shall respect the right of parents to ensure such education and teaching is in conformity with their own religious and philosophical convictions."
"However, that court just last year affirmed a German court which had ruled the parental "wish" to have their children grow up without anti-Christian influences "could not take priority over compulsory school attendance."
"The international court said schools represent society and "it was in the children's interest to become part of that society."
The government monopoly on education in Germany was a policy introduced by Adolf Hitler, and has never been rescinded. Even though Germany is taking steps to strip Hitler of his German citizenship, in this area of mind control over the next generation they show no signs of renouncing Hitler's misguided power grab. Is this 2007 or 1937?
