Sorry, but putting a roof over the kid's head is part of taking care
of the kid and failing to do so is neglecting the kid.

Part of parenting is to see that the children are educated so they will not
have to live in a cardboard box.

And you think the public schools are going to accomplish that by
fining the parents if they don't come to meetings?
