Hopefully parents will get the message that attendance to school is a serious thing. Not going to school, especially if your child is in high school can mess up their life big time.

Parents doing the time for kids not going to school.
If you don't attend school on a regular basis or know someone that doesn't attend school then this could be an important notice. In Palm Beach, Fl there has been a new law passed stating that parents of children under 16 who allow their children to miss 15 or more days of school in a 3 month time period receive 2 months in jail. Going to jail is a last resort after the court and social workers do whatever they can to fix the problem. This law has been passed in other countys across the US such as Baltimore and in Orange County. Parents have suffered the consequences for their children by going to jail.
This could be a huge deal to parents and children across the nation. I know a lot of people at my school who miss at least one day a week if not more. This year my school started bribing us with donuts by giving out donuts to every class that had everyone there that day.
Hopefully parents will get the message that attendance to school is a serious thing. Not going to school, especially if your child is in high school can mess up their life big time.
