The schools chief wants to fine bad parents who don't turn up at parents' evening, supervise homework or read to their children. Plenty don't, including my sister who, as a busy nurse, left that side of thing to the kids. Hers turned out alright.
There are some very crappy parents about. Dentists in Manchester were filmed taking out the teeth of toddlers because : "You can't stop kids eating toffees - he'd wreck the house," said one fat, toothless mum of her lively four-year-old.
Four! He hasn't had teeth long enough for them to go bad and rot in his head has he? Seems so. "They'll put a needle in and put you to sleep and the pain will stop" she added. Thanks mum.
Do these parents care at all? My sister did, she banned sweets before her two went to school. Result - perfect teeth. They read pretty well too.
