"How can we get your children indoctrinated into a 8a-5p work week if we have them go in later? We can't have that!"

[–] Darkard@lemmy.world 35 points 2 years ago (3 children)

That's half the problem though isn't it. The parents have to work the 9 to 5 so that's when the kids need to be out of the house as well.

Why? Can't the kids leave after the parents?

For healthy and capable children, sure.

Thing is, it's usually earlier, around 7:30am when I was in school, earlier if you wanted the breakfast they had.

Those kids typically aren't out of the house during those hours in summer.

It's very much a problem for parents.

They should have thought of that before becoming parents, then. It's not the kid's fault the parents can't think ahead or take responsibility for their stupid actions. School shouldn't be a babysitter for John and Jane Doe.

Schools act also as daycare, not their primary function but that's the norm all over the world not sure why you think they shouldn't or why this implies a lack of responsibility

Too bad, cause I don't want to do 9-5s.

True. School is useless.
