Online home school law question?

[chozai65]

I'm curious if I were to do online home schooling than would the child labor law where I can only work a certain number of hours apply to me, since it says if I go to in to school the next day. and online there are no "fixed" hours I must do the work.

Yes.

If it were otherwise, then the law would say something to the effect of "Does not apply to home schooled or tutored minors". So you might as well accept the limits of the law, because your employer most certainly will.
