Bill S142-2013 Requires persons in parental relation with a child of elementary school age to attend parent support programs; completion of four workshops one of which shall be related to physical, emotional and sexual abuse of children, shall be a requirement for the child's advancement to seventh grade. http://open.nysenate.gov/legislation/bill/S142-2013Okay, so a kid has parents who don't fulfill the requirement, she loses her right to an education as a citizen? One of the 'workshops' is about child abuse, so no one can be against forcing people to sit through it, because everybody agrees abuse is bad, right? Then what are the other workshops about? Whose idea of good parenting is going to be made mandatory, or promoted as the correct thinking? And who pays for every parent in New York to sit in a room and listen to this, and who profits? |
