OT again: Parents could be fined for missing school meetings
Only the Texas GOP could produce such a ****tard.
Parents Who Skip School Meetings Could Be Fined
AUSTIN, Texas -- Parents bewa Miss a meeting with your child's
teacher
and it could cost you a $500 fine and a criminal record.
A Republican state lawmaker from Baytown has filed a bill that would
charge
parents of public school students with a misdemeanor and fine them for
playing hooky from a scheduled parent-teacher conference.
Rep. Wayne Smith said Wednesday he wants to get parents involved in
their
child's education.
"I think it helps the kids for the parents and teachers to
communicate.
That's all the intent was," Smith said.
