I'm split about this, on one hand I understand that some children need support beyond their family group, on the other I don't like the idea that schools are somehow better equipped to make this decision than parents. I'm no expert but I think I have a right to know what my kids are doing at school- I mean, my kid can't join the chess club without permission. I guess I'm just more trusting of parents, I don't think the story of parents disowning a child happens very often. And how are schools equipped to deal with this?
