JCCS Academic Language Assessment Week 29 - School Conferences

Parents should face jail time for missing their child's school conferences . According to CNN, "It's child abuse when your child is failing in school and you're not involved, because you are strapping that child to a life of poverty," (source link). This shows that Kym Worthy, the prosecutor thinks that it it child abuse for not responding when your child is failing school. This also shows that if indeed the parent never goes to his or hers meetings and the child fails, and ends up homeless, the parent is to be blamed. According to Examiner.com, "Kim Worthy says she is not interested in putting parents in jail if their children are high achievers." (source link). This shows that in the bright side, if the parents do miss but the students is academically doing good, they might be no consequences for the parent. This also shows that if the parent also has health issue they can be excused. In conclusion, parents should face jail time for missing their child's school conferences.
