I had the opposite experience (at Richardson ISD in Texas). I spent my entire senior year being 18, and aside from a few nice teachers who let me sign my own syllabi, they just completely ignored the fact that I was an adult. They made me have my mom sign things and excuse me from class (although to be fair, in this state adults enrolled in K-12 classes are still required by law to attend). I had to get a parent signature in order to get a non-zero grade on a research paper. I even had my choir director tell me that I "don't get a bunch of rights" when I had the gall to ask if I could consent to my own medical care for trips. I also heard a couple of stories of adult students who didn't live with their parents being tricked into signing "affidavits of residency" that actually took away their rights and gave them a guardian until their graduation. If this is true, then I have no clue how it could possibly be legal. I've found nothing online about that kind of thing. And all of this while we have a law on the books requiring adult students to exercise parental rights for themselves: http://www.statutes.legis.state.tx.us/Docs/ED/htm/ED.26.htm#26.002 http://www.statutes.legis.state.tx.us/Docs/ED/htm/ED.26.htm#...
