How the hell is it hard to get your kids to school on time? If what you're doing isn't working, change it. Get up 20 mins earlier, make lunches the night before, whatever. 30 times since Sept is bullshit. If they can get there 'a few minutes late' they can get there on time.
Having said that . . . to charge the parents with a crime because of this is bullshit. Fine them $500 and I guarantee you those kids will be on time from now on.
It is a fine. They refuse to pay it and want a trial.
The Denicores are each charged with three Class 3 misdemeanors, each of which carries a maximum fine of $500. Their three children, ages 6, 7 and 9, have been late to school almost 30 times since September.
30 times since September? It sounds like these arrogant litigators don't think their children need to comply with the same rules as their classmates.
Those kids will be trouble in HS. I can almost guarantee it.
It amazes me that people believe that following simple, common sense school rules is Nazi-like. Anarchists would agree.
They're idiots, the lawyer will cost them gobs more than the fine.
Unless, of course, they managed to get his service for free.
That's not a good reason to not fight for what's right. Many many important legal disputes have been very costly. But in the end, you have to fight for what's right. And sometimes the costs are great.
