[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People who do this, or who consider doing this, extreme measure, at the risk of getting caught, have their reasons. Some schools are truly abysmal (dangerous; indifferent or biased teachers or admin, the list goes on). Unfortunately there’s no charter school option right now.

I personally wouldn’t do this but it’s easy for me to say given my comfortable situation. Wouldn’t judge others so harshly. They’re trying to give their kids a decent chance given their probably more limited means. Illegal doesn’t mean it’s wrong. Many people pay property taxes yet don’t have school age kids or choose not to attend the public school, etc. Seems to even itself out.[/quote]

Wow -- "Illegal doesn't mean it's wrong"? This sounds like the same reasoning teens use to justify vaping THC at school or drinking underage or ignoring driving with passenger restrictions.

The parents I know who do this aren't of limited means--it's entitled middle class and upper middle-class parents. Parents of limited means rely upon school buses to get their kids to school. They aren't able to pay for the gas or take off work to drive their kids to and from school every day. [/quote]
