Missed PTA Meetings of Parents

An Associated Press story on July 6, 2010, "Missed meetings could mean jail time for parents" is about a Detroit area prosecutor Kym Worthy who wants to jail parents for 3 days if they continue to miss parent teacher conferences.

What is a parent teacher conference? It is a meeting between a government employee, many who do not have children, and parents. The meeting is an opportunity for the government employee to advise the parents of their responsibilities.

Prosecutor Worthy blames parents for the crimes of their children. Worthy thinks by making parents visit government employees, teachers, and listening to the teachers, will help prevent crimes committed by children.

The cause of teenage crime is the government policies that make it unnecessary for mothers to have a child's father in the house to help raise the child.

The more government screws up the more they look to blame others for the problems government policies create. With teenage crime on the rise the government wants to use force and aggression, that's all government is, on parents.

The government has the authority to make your children attend government schools. Now the government wants the authority to make parents attend to teachers' advice.
