Who could possibly have seen this coming?
...this qualifies as national news?
I mean, it’s funny enough to make the cut in my opinion.
Exactly. It gave me a chuckle.
fuck this government and it draconian measures of fining parents of truant kids.
fuck this government going after home school families.
fuck this government and it ripping out the current standards instead of just fixing bits that need fixing
fuck this government for trying to removing Te Reo and Tiriti O Waitangi from education curriculum
just fuck the government in general
Eh, it seems to have lit a fire under most of the parents.
If your kid is missing more than half the school year maybe you should show up in court and explain yourself
