Skip Your Parent-Teacher Conference, Go to Jail?
"I love parent-teacher conferences; I get to talk about one of my favorite subjects in the world — my kids — with someone who gets to spend more time with them during the day than I do."
This is a very sad commentary on American families. I'm not surprised this mom would even admit to such a thing.
Even worse...CONVICTED??? For what? Being a parent???
"Moms and pops convicted of parent-teacher truancy would get one last chance to make things right before swapping business suits for prisoner garb. If, after being convicted, they schedule and attend a conference, the sentence would disappear — kind of like this proposal is likely to do."
PATHETIC. REALLY PATHETIC!
Wow, that is pretty amazing.
ReplyDeleteI am surprised by how many of the comments support the idea of forcing parents to attend the parent-teacher conferences.
