Wisconsin v. Yoder : Follow Up Questions

1) How does Yoder's religious beliefs differ from Reynolds? Is there a difference or does this decision overrule Reynolds?

2) What are the interests of the state of Wisconsin in wanting children to attend school until the age of 16? Can you think of another way the state's interest could have been satisfied?

3) This case involved coercion on the part of the state, what if there was no coercion involved? Can you think of an example that would not involve coercion?
