Heh, I see what you did there.
I don't think that holds because society (and the law) hold the parents to be responsible for a child's well being - not the school. With that responsibility also comes the right to make decisions affecting the child's well being.
That's why the state (which a public school is an instrument of) doesn't question how a parent raises their child (unless the parent's conduct rises level of abuse, of course).
- jonsen 17y ago;-) Neither point holds. Of course parents are ultimate responsible. But the school parent relationship is better off building on mutual professional respect and a certain division of power. Edit: and a sound amount of questioning from both sides of course.
