[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why don't you tell your kid they are not allowed to leave campus.  Unbelievable that you can find a way to blame the school for this.[/quote]

Seriously I can’t believe that if as a parent you care that you can’t figure out how to enforce it. I mean tell them no. If they do it, take aware their source of funds, take the phone, ground them. Whatever. [/quote]

Taking their phone away for leaving campus is punishing them after the fact. It is not enforcing the school’s supposed closed campus policy.

Again, only the school can enforce that. Parents are not in the building.[/quote]

We’re talking high schoolers, not two year olds. They’ll get the connection. And parents are not as powerless as you make them out to be. [/quote]

You keep talking in circles to avoid acknowledging the obvious point that enforcement of the school's closed campus policy rests with the school, not the parents. It defies logic to say people who are not physically in the school building are more responsible to enforce the closed campus policy more than the adults who are in the school building.

But then again, I don't think you possess or prize ration and logic anyway. So this is a moot discussion.[/quote]
It defies logic to think that 5 security guards are somehow going to stop a couple of hundred kids leaving the building at lunch or that the school can impose some sort of meaningful penalty for leaving that the parents won't be all up in arms about or that somehow this is the biggest issue that the school needs to resolve.[/quote]
