Ahh, it makes sense now why you are defending the statist principle that children belong to the school employees (and thus, the parents "need permission" to see their own children).
Like the MSNBC host, you share the belief that we must "break through our kind of private idea that kids belong to their parents, or kids belong to their families, and recognize that kids belong to whole communities."
I appreciate your honesty in this little revelation.
That’s why the school has to stop EVERYONE to see who they are and if they are the people listed on the legal paperwork that has right of access to the child. That paperwork is REQUIRED of everyone when they enroll their child in school. NO ONE can gain access unless they are listed - no matter if they are a relative or not or if the parent asked them for a favor to pick up the child. They HAVE TO BE LISTED.
