[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OK, so I'm no genius. How do you actually carrot-and-stick the kids to show up at school? That sounds like the biggest thing.[/quote] I personally am in favor of parents getting jail time. But I think paying them would work too. $1000 per kid if your child misses less than 10 days a year. Schools only actually care about kids showing up because of how much money they lose by the truancy, well maybe they could share some of that money with families? [/quote]
