Pretty sure I have read this before, meaning it would have been a FR thread from 2020+.

Back some eight years ago our neighbor was told that their daughter, who had asthma and some other health problems, had missed too much school and was truant. They sent a letter to the parents at the end of the school year and were threatening them with the loss of their child, jail and a whole bunch of other things.

They ended up that evening on our couch crying about it.

Small problem, state law said that a child under six was not obligated to attend school at all. It was legally impossible for the child to be truant.

They wanted the parents to come in and "talk about it".

Since I was off that day I decided to tag along.

It. Was. Wild.

They wanted the parents to sign all kinds of papers admitting that they were at fault for the daughter not being at school as "required by law" and submit to a CPS investigation.

They refused and moved their daughter to another school.

Can’t have the kids missing their daily indoctrination.

I have a friend who teaches home bound students in our public school district. So, for example, if someone has a very long recovery from surgery, she does one-on-one lessons with the child, in person or, more frequently now, on Zoom. This keeps kids from having to repeat a year due to missed days. There is no reason to bring truancy accusations into the picture when it is a health concern.

Oh, that. Seems like National Partisan Radio is doing some CYA. Oh, and, Bolling, the sudden scramble to obliterate ballot access for the Green Party is completely unrelated to the Kennedy endorsement. /s

Truancy is a problem that requires personal and school solutions, not prosecutions.
