So long as the parents are forced to send their children to school, so long as they live in the school district (and unless they live on the streets) and pay taxes even if indirectly through a landlord then really it's not right and it's not RIGHT to expect them not to have a say in the education that's being forced upon their kids.

What if the parents are felons who have served their time?

What if a parent is dead but used to really care about his child's future education?

Some states already allow this. I see no problem with it. Not like he's going to be voting on laws only on the people who are going to be teaching his kid.

If the parent is able to enter the voting booth and cast a vote of their own violition then I'd have to say sure. Then I would be wondering if Jesus finally decided to make another housecall.

Democrats have no problem with either felons or dead people exercising their franchise.
