Detention for tardy parents
YJCMTSU
New rule at N.Y. city school
A public school is requiring detention for parents who get their kids to school late.
Under the new rule at the Manhattan School for Children, parents who dont drop off their children by 8:25 a.m. have to pick up late slips from the principals office and go to the auditorium to serve 20 minutes of detention with them.
The parents need to make the breakfast, get the children dressed and get them to school on time, principal Susan Rappaport told the New York Post for Sundays editions.
Some tardy parents at the school, which has 660 pupils in kindergarten through eighth grade, complained the detention made them late for work.
But others approved, saying they felt humiliated and wont show up late again.
Lol. Yep, some people pay good money to be humiliated...
