We have plenty of good female politicians to try and make president, but for some reason the only ones the establishment are interested in pushing are former lawyers.

Concerned Citizen posted:well those are called "compulsory education laws." idk what other way you're supposed to get a parent who deliberately refuses to send their kids to school to do so without compelling them. it's obviously very different from someone who has chronic health issues or other circumstances that make it difficult to get their kid to school on time or consistently, there's no reason that should be a criminal case, but in the case of someone who is healthy has the means but refuses to do so, there's clearly serious problems in that household. does the law distinguish between those two cases, and explicitly spell that out? if not, then there is no distinction at all and you're counting on either selective enforcement or selective sentencing, with no legal guidance to ensure either is used correctly. that is bad

Concerned Citizen posted:what countries don't have criminal penalties assigned to not sending your kids to school? i checked 3 random european countries (finland, germany, uk) and all 3 had something, if not necessarily jail at least fines Right, visits by social workers, reasonable fines for repeat offenders, maybe mandatory parenting classes or something, and eventually if things are really bad and borderline abusive then CPS might need to be involved. That's normal. Throwing parents in prison, even just as a hypothetical option under the law (we know how cautious prosecutors are in exercising that discretion!) for failing to hit benchmarks makes things worse. It's insane. Also, $2,000 fines are enough to cripple a lot of families. Many single-parent families struggle just to get their kids to school each day and pay rent.

See you're going straight to Bundy but under this law as written, almost 30% of parents of Native American and African American ancestry could be imprisoned. It's mostly poverty and substance abuse, not willful criminal behavior. These people need help, not prison.

ThndrShk2k posted:Wait I only thought he bought a gameshow set while drunk? i'm assuming y'all are talking about me (because lol if you think i willingly read cc's posts itt but still people quote him so here we are) three years ago, i was a contestant on who wants to be a millionaire. i won $63,600 which came in handy as i was already forty grand in the hole with student debt (which wasn't counting the other personal debt that i had to take for getting a car, emergencies, school supplies, etc). so, yes, that brief moment when i was a member of the middle class was fun. but it's not six-figgy rich, and that was what could very well be a once in a lifetime thing. but it certainly didn't put me out of touch with how much being poor sucks, nor do i consider myself hurting enough that i'm willing defend some absolutely unconscionable opinions and policy decisions that haven't worked for near thirty years now simply because the people partially responsible for the bullshit in which we now live happens to be the people signing my paychecks.

I mean I've basically only read few articles, but my impression is that CA has traditionally operated under the sort of relatively reasonable system that you describe, while certain other states such as Florida have frequently handed out more heavy-handed criminal punishments. Anyway it looks like truancy rates in CA have remained flat or ticked up just slightly since the draconian rules were adopted in 2011, it's almost as though nothing has been accomplished.

In the u.s. chronic absenteeism correlates with poverty level, and we do not have a strong social-safety net. "let's jail & fine 'em" is the wrong answer on how to resolve the problem of chronic absenteeism in this country.
